This is an estimate for planning only — not a loan quote or commitment to lend.

Recent nearby sales of similar homes

This home appears priced above recent comparable sales (which imply about $667,083–$1,206,667 by sold price per square foot). That can mean room to negotiate — or that it offers something the comps don't. Worth talking through.
