THERE ARE SEVERAL reasons you’d want to know the value of your home, from getting ready to list it for sale to understanding your options in the future.

You might just be curious whether your home has increased in value over the last several years, you’re considering switching your mortgage provider, or you might be aware that you could need to know the value of your home in order to file local property tax with the department of revenue. 

Thankfully, Daft.ie has a free online home valuation tool that will get you the details you need about your home’s value instantly. Simply fill in a few key details about your home, including your address, how many bedrooms and bathrooms it contains, what you paid for it initially, and how long you’ve owned it. Once you input that information, you’ll gain an instant understanding of what your home is worth.

Daft’s free and instant home valuation tool can provide you with key information you’ll need to begin the process of selling your home. The information you glean from the online Daft valuation can help inform an initial conversation with an estate agent and set the stage for discussions about a potential asking price. 

Alternatively, if you weren’t aware of your local property tax liability coming up, here’s what you need to know and why Daft’s free online instant valuation tool is going to be key to filing your return on or before December 2nd. 

There are a few qualifying criteria that will dictate whether you need to file local property tax for the first time this winter. First, if you purchased, or built, a new residential property between November 2, 2021 and November 1, 2022, you may be liable for LPT in 2023. Or, if your home is a newly build residential property or has become occupied or suitable for use as a dwelling between that same time period. 

Do those qualifications apply to you? If so, you’ll want to put the deadline of December 2nd into your calendar because you’ll need to self-assess the value of your newly liable property and submit it as part of your local property tax return by that date. Keep in mind, you’ll need to determine the value of your property as if it had existed in its complete state on November 1, 2021.

Whether you’re planning to sell your home or want to make sure you stay on top of your local property taxes, this free, instant, online home valuation tool from Daft.ie will be a game-changer.
