How Much Has My Home Increased in Value Since I Bought It?

Tracking your home’s appreciation isn’t just interesting — it can help you decide when to sell, refinance, or invest further in real estate.

What Drives Value Gains

Since 2020, Central Florida homes have experienced double-digit appreciation, especially in areas like Clermont, Mount Dora, and The Villages. Your home’s value may have increased due to:

• Market-wide price growth

• Upgrades or renovations you’ve made

• New amenities or school zoning

• Increased buyer demand in your area

Ways to Estimate Your Current Value

• Check recent sales of similar homes in your neighborhood

• Use online estimators as a starting point

• Request a comparative market analysis (CMA) from a real estate advisor

Even if you're not selling today, knowing your home's equity position can help you:

• Plan for your next purchase

• Refinance into a better loan

• Use equity for home improvements or other investments
