Today we will address an important question: What is the difference between market value and assessed value?

Well, assessed value is the value put on your home by a tax assessor. This value is used to determine the amount a homeowner pays in terms of property tax, municipal tax, federal tax, or whatever tax is applicable in their area.

On the other hand, market value is the value your home would be sold for in the real estate market. It’s determined by what a willing-and-able buyer who is not under duress would pay a willing-and-able seller for their home.

If a home is listed at $500,000 and receives multiple offers, one of which is for $520,000, then the amount of that highest offer would equate to the home’s market value.
