Do You Know What Your Home Is Really Worth?

Zillow and other websites use algorithms to estimate value—and each platform weighs data differently. That’s why you’ll often see different numbers for the same home. But your home isn’t a formula. Condition, upgrades, lot and location nuances, timing, and real buyer demand are things an algorithm can’t see. You deserve to know exactly what it’s worth—this is your equity, your options, your wealth.

Algorithms Aren’t Appraisals

Online values are automated guesses. They’re helpful for a ballpark—but not for decisions. Each site’s model is different, so results vary and create confusion.

Local Factors Matter

Micro-market trends, school lines, street appeal, updates, and competition can move value thousands—nuance that generic models miss.

Not all real estate agents are the same — and choosing the right one can completely change your results.

Whether you’re buying or selling, your agent’s experience, strategy, and dedication determine how smoothly the process goes and how much money you walk away with.

When Selling Your Home

Every detail matters. Some agents simply put up a sign and wait for calls — but homes don’t sell themselves. The right agent creates excitement before your home even hits the market, personally reaching out to buyers and agents to build anticipation.

Presentation is everything. Professional photography, curated images, and strong marketing create that critical first impression online. Beyond visuals, exposure drives results through targeted social media campaigns and digital advertising.

When offers arrive, skilled negotiation can mean the difference between an average sale and an exceptional one.

When Buying a Home

Buying a home isn’t just about opening doors — it’s about advocacy and insight. A great agent goes beyond the MLS, uncovering off-market opportunities and using their network to find homes most buyers never see.

They gather key details before you even view a property, helping you make confident, informed decisions and move quickly when the right home appears.

A dedicated agent listens to your goals, educates you about the market, and ensures you never overpay or miss hidden potential.

The Bottom Line

Choosing the right agent can save you time, stress, and thousands of dollars. In today’s competitive market, experience, strategy, and dedication aren’t optional — they’re essential.

When it comes to one of life’s biggest financial decisions, the right agent doesn’t just make a difference — they make all the difference.

Experience • Strategy • Dedication — that’s the Monica Druhe difference.

“Monica was very quick to respond about getting the house listed and did a great job of getting potential buyers to look at the house. The house is in escrow now and she was able to get multiple offers, just by putting the house onto ‘coming soon’ before the open house. It was fast and easy working with Monica. Highly recommend her. Monica really helped in all areas of the sale. It was great!!!!”

She went above and beyond and helped us throughout the whole process, and accommodated our needs as well. She always kept our interests first, and advocated the best outcome our family wanted. I highly recommend her to all potential future home buyers as well.”
