Buyers are always concerned about overpaying for a home.
But it is not always clear how much a home is really worth. If you buy in a newer tract development, prices will be fairly consistent. In an older, established neighborhood prices are less uniform. In either case, the best way to learn the fair market value of a home is to look at a lot of different properties. To start the education process, visit open houses and keep track of the homes you see by collecting fliers and brochures.
