How do you evaluate a property's value and potential risks?

@melyna.hettinger When evaluating a property's value and potential risks, I take a comprehensive approach that considers many different factors. Firstly, I look at location, the property type and size, market trends, and comparable sales in the surrounding area to determine the property's value. Then, I also analyze the local neighborhood, demographics, and economic conditions which could significantly impact the property's value in the future.

To assess the potential risks, I look at a combination of physical and legal aspects. For example, I would inspect the property to determine if there are any structural problems or hazards that could impact it's value. I also examine the property's history and title deeds, ensuring that there are no legal issues or pending lawsuits that affect the property's value or ownership.

Additionally, I consider external factors, such as changes in government regulations, zoning laws, and environmental concerns that might impact the value and usability of the property in the future. By carefully considering both the value and risks, I can advise clients in making informed decisions when considering an investment in a property.
