Easton Enge Determining Duplex ARV
23 June 2015 | 6 replies
@Easton Enge, I imagine that the answer is "yes", with the proviso that you are using the correct formula for a single family home, which of course is largely guesswork anyway, because every property is unique, and the market value depends on who is looking to buy on any given day and how much they can afford, and how good the selling Agent is, and how desperate you as the Seller is at the time, and how much the Buyers have researched the comps, and (should I go on)?...
