Free valuation · Asturias

What is your home worth? We'll give you the real number.

Not an automatic figure pulled from the cadastre, nor a flattering price that gets cut two months later. A sale range backed by the real comparables it rests on, from someone who sells in Gijón every week.

Knowing what it's worth doesn't oblige you to sell.

Plenty of people call us just to have the number. That's fine by us.

First things first

An appraisal and a valuation are not the same thing.

Almost everyone arrives looking for an "appraisal" when what they actually need is a valuation. We clear that up first, because if what you need is an official appraisal, this isn't the page you're looking for and we'd rather tell you now.

The method

Six things an online estimate can't know.

01

Real comparable sales

What has actually completed on your street and in your neighbourhood in recent months, not what the neighbour is asking on a portal. The listed price and the price on the deeds almost never match.

02

Today's active competition

How many homes comparable to yours are on the market right now, and at what price. Those are the ones you're up against, and they decide whether your home gets looked at or skipped.

03

Condition and pending work

What the buyer gets as it stands and what they'd have to invest. A 1990s kitchen doesn't knock off what it costs to replace: it knocks off what the buyer thinks it will cost.

04

Floor, light and aspect

Within the same building there can be a 15% price gap between a first-floor flat facing the inner courtyard and a penthouse facing the street. The neighbourhood's average price per square metre doesn't capture that.

05

Paperwork

Nota simple (land registry extract), charges, undivided inheritances, discrepancies with the cadastre, a pending building inspection (ITE). It doesn't change the value, but it does change the real time to sell and how many buyers you can reach.

06

Current demand

What the buyers in the market this season are looking for. Something that sold itself two years ago may need a different price today, or the other way round.

Four steps and one visit.

Step 1

You tell us the basics

Where it is, what it is and when you'd like to sell. A few quick questions, with no documents to upload and nothing to sign up for.

Step 2

Carlos calls you

A member of the team calls you, not a robot or an automated email, within the hours you've chosen. That's when we arrange the visit.

Step 3

We come and see it

Always. No market data can tell you whether the living room has the kind of light that sells itself, or whether the building has just approved a levy for works. Half an hour in the home changes the number, sometimes by quite a lot.

Step 4

You get a range with the reasoning

An asking-price and closing-price range, with the comparable sales it rests on. If it helps you decide and you never call us again, that's fine by us.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us before they call.

Is this an official appraisal?

No. An official appraisal can only be signed by an appraisal company approved by the Bank of Spain, is governed by Order ECO/805/2003 and usually costs between €250 and €400. What Faro provides is a sale valuation: the price your home can sell for on the market today. If what you need is the official appraisal, we'll tell you who to speak to.

When do I need an official appraisal rather than a valuation?

When a third party requires it: the bank to grant a mortgage, an inheritance with tax implications, court proceedings, or a division between heirs that needs a legally backed figure. To decide what price to list your home at, no official appraisal is needed.

Is it free? Where's the catch?

It's free and it commits you to nothing. There's no exclusivity or sales mandate to sign in order to receive it. We do it because some of the people who ask for a valuation end up selling with us, and because we'd rather someone who doesn't sell with Faro walks away with an honest number than an inflated one.

Why don't you give an instant price from the cadastral reference?

Because an automatic calculation only knows square metres, year and area. It doesn't know whether your flat faces the courtyard or the street, whether the building has approved a levy for works, or whether the kitchen hasn't been touched since 1995 — and those three things move the price more than the neighbourhood's average per square metre. We start from the market data and then we come and see the home, always. The number we stand behind comes from both.

Does it work for an inherited home or one with several owners?

Yes, and it's one of the cases we see most. A home can be valued even if the inheritance hasn't been divided or several siblings can't agree. In fact, having a number with the reasoning behind it on the table is usually what gets the conversation moving.

Which areas do you cover?

Gijón, Oviedo, Siero and the rest of Asturias. Our office is at Avenida Roces 1375 in Gijón. If your home is a long way off, say so on the call and we'll tell you honestly whether we can look after it properly.

What if I'm not convinced by the price you give me?

Nothing happens. You keep the report and you decide. We don't push, we don't put you in an email sequence and we don't pass your details to anyone. If you'd like to pick it up again later, you know where we are.
