Bidding on a home can feel like a balancing act. You want to make a competitive offer without overpaying or risking financing issues. Walter helps you craft a winning bid while keeping financial risks in check.
A strategic balance: competitive yet realistic
Winning often requires bidding ahead of the market. Walter’s approach factors in both a home’s current value and what it may take to secure it.
- Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) – A reliable, data-driven valuation that provides a realistic baseline.
- Winning Bid Estimate – A projection of what’s needed to win, factoring in market trends and competitive dynamics.
What if the appraisal is lower than my offer?
A lower-than-expected appraisal can impact financing. Walter helps you anticipate and plan for potential gaps by:
- Data-backed bidding strategies – Walter’s CMA is conservative, ensuring your bids are aligned with market realities.
- Realistic financial planning – In 60% of cases, the appraisal matches or exceeds the advised purchase price.
- Managing potential shortfalls – Here’s how the 40% of cases with a lower appraisal are distributed:
- The first 10% of cases have an appraisal gap less than €4,000.
- The next 10% of cases have an appraisal gap between €4,000 and €9,000.
- Only 10% of cases have an appraisal gap larger than €19,000.
This insight helps you decide what’s manageable before placing your bid.
