Ten questions and a walk through the house. A real valuation at the end — not a guess off your address.
We combine recent comparable sales and public property records with AI analysis of the photos you upload, so your estimate reflects your home's actual condition — not just its address and square footage.
No. A licensed appraisal involves an in-person inspection by a certified appraiser and is required for most mortgage and legal purposes. HomeVal.AI gives you a fast, low-cost estimate that's useful for planning — but it isn't a substitute for a formal appraisal.
Public records can't tell us whether your kitchen was just remodeled or needs work. Our AI reads your photos for condition, updates, and features, then adjusts the value from comparable sales accordingly — which is why photos are required to get a number.
Yes. If your report doesn't reflect a recent renovation, an incorrect detail, or a comparable sale that doesn't apply to your home, you can flag it and get a revised report.
Public property records, recent comparable sales in your area, and AI-powered analysis of photos you provide.
No — the full report is free, and no account is needed. We don't show a number until you've added photos, though. Photos are what let our AI actually assess your home's condition, so we require them before revealing a value.
Accuracy depends on how much recent sales data is available in your area and how active your local market is. It's a strong starting point for planning, not a guaranteed sale price.
Only if you choose to share it. If you arrived through an agent's or lender's link, the review step has a box (unchecked unless you check it) to share your report with them — your name, email, address and estimated value go to them only if you check it. Otherwise HomeVal.AI doesn't pass your information to any Realtor or lender, including the featured ones for your zip code.
