Do You Know How Much Your House Is Really Worth?
Let’s be honest — when was the last time you checked what your home is actually worth? Not a rough guess. Not a Zestimate. A real number backed by real market data.
Your home is probably your biggest financial asset. And if you’ve owned it for a few years or more, it’s likely been building quiet wealth behind the scenes in the form of equity. In today’s shifting market, that equity could be worth more than you think.
📊 What Is Home Equity?
Equity is the difference between your home’s market value and what you still owe on your mortgage. For example, if your home is worth $500,000 and your loan balance is $200,000 — you’ve got $300,000 in equity. And that’s right in line with the national average.
According to CoreLogic, the average U.S. homeowner has over $300,000 in tappable equity right now.
💹 Why You Likely Have More Equity Than You Think
There are two major reasons:
- Home Prices Have Skyrocketed. Over the past 5 years, home values have jumped nearly 54% nationwide (according to the FHFA).
- People Are Staying Put Longer. The longer you stay, the more equity you build — even without market growth.
💡 What Can You Do With All That Equity?
Your equity is more than just a number — it’s an opportunity.
- Move Up: Use it as a down payment on a larger home.
- Downsize: Cash out your gains and reduce monthly expenses.
- Renovate: Fund upgrades that increase resale value.
- Invest: Launch a business or buy a rental property.
