The hidden value of every house

There are lots kinds of values when assessing, when inspecting a house. Most realtors deal with the classic commercial value of the property, in their urgent need to set a tag price for their listings. Buyers are also interested in the taxable value of the property, while some others might refer to the relative value of the house. Each interested group forms and communicates that kind of value it easier understands or possibly accepts. 

But what about the real value of a luxury house? What about this hidden value that has to do with intangible factors? Cause, the real value of every house comes before any other commercial or official value arises, before any talk for money comes to the table.

The untold and ugly truth, the truth that all know but no-one speaks for is that the hidden value of a luxury house is most time deliberately skipped by the real estate agents and the vast majority of real estate agencies. For the plausible reason, of course, that it hinders an easy sale.

And indeed it is really impressive what the hidden/the real value of a property might bring to the surface. When you drop the company guidelines and the accompanying strategy to lower the owner’s property price in order to make it (theoretically) more attractive, you will discover a world of details and uncovered secrets you never thought before.

The real value of every house is always the story of house itself, the life story of the people that live or were living there. You will find it there among the books, out to the garden, somewhere amidst the fallen leaves and the parked bicycles. You will hear the stories and the voices of the family gatherings and the cocktail parties whispering to your ears. You will smell the baking lamb and the Christmas spices embracing your senses. You will see the kids with their fellow kindergarten friends playing hide and seek and shouting all the time. 

In this virtual time-travel journey you will surely encounter the real value of the house. This value that hasn’t any tags and financial ways of calculation. 

This value that magically incorporates the potential and at the same time the story of every house. 

This intangible value that can be seen and understood only by few. 

By those that we will not see only the condition of the walls, by those who will look behind the walls and will search for the hidden potential of a property, a factor that will finally make the difference in finding the appropriate buyer, the one that he/she will fully appreciate mainly this intrinsic kind of value. 

The kind of value we here in Property-Io Luxury Real Estate desperately seek for. The value that goes beyond any commercial or market estimations. 

The value that the house or the property has or have had for the owners and those living there. The value of the dwell or the vineyard, the value of the basement winery and the small wooden penthouse. The value of the pine or olive trees, the value and the history of the furniture. The magic stardust and the energy that surrounds the specific life-story, property and location.

The question is only one; are you able to discover it, to understand it and finally to communicate it?
