What Is My Home Worth in the Tri-Cities?
A price range built from real, adjusted comps, not a Zestimate.
What is my home worth? Not what Zillow says.
If you're asking what your home is worth, you've probably already seen a Zestimate. It's a computer's guess from public data. It can't see your upgrades, your view, your layout or the work you've put in.
I'm Brandon Muzatko, a REALTOR® and Washington Managing Broker with TKO Realty Group at Real Broker, LLC. I value homes the way appraisers do, because that's how I trained. As a former licensed commercial real estate appraiser trainee, I completed the full Appraisal Institute general appraiser coursework, and I use those methods on every home I price.

The Professional Equity Assessment Report
When you ask me what your home is worth, you get a Professional Equity Assessment Report. It shows you the work, so you can check the math.
- Comparable sales, recent sales of homes like yours, each one adjusted the way an appraiser would for size, bedrooms, baths, condition and lot.
- Active competition, the homes buyers will compare yours to the week you list.
- Homes that didn't sell, where sellers missed, and why. Often the most useful data of all.
- The Real Number Check, the total days on market on every competing home, pulled from the MLS, because the days you see online can reset when a home is relisted.
- A price range, built from the adjusted comps, not a single number pulled from price per square foot.
Your equity and what you'd walk away with
Equity is the part of your home you own outright: today's value minus what you still owe. If your home is worth $400,000 and you owe $200,000, that's $200,000 in equity. That's an example, not your number.
The price on the sign isn't what you take home, so the report also estimates your net. In Washington, what usually comes out of a sale is your mortgage payoff, the commission, the Washington real estate excise tax, the owner's title insurance policy for the buyer, your share of the escrow fee, property taxes and HOA dues split to closing day, and any repairs or credits. Your escrow closer gives the final figures at closing.
Why the first price matters
Buyers skip homes that look overpriced. Miss the mark, and you usually end up cutting the price later just to get attention back. Pricing your own home is hard because you love it. That's exactly why the numbers matter.
A good valuation also tells you whether this is the right time to move. If you're thinking about selling and buying at the same time, your equity is often the down payment on the next home. Read moving up in the Tri-Cities, selling your home in the Tri-Cities, or how I sell a home.
Home values across the Tri-Cities
Values change street by street. For context, the median sold price for a single-family home across the Tri-Cities was $444,400 in April 2026, per the TRIDEC 2026 Fact Sheet, and neighborhoods like Willowbrook and Hansen Park run well above that.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is a Zestimate?
It's a computer's estimate from public data. It can't see your upgrades, layout, view or condition, so it can miss in either direction. A real value comes from adjusted comparable sales.
Is the home value report free?
Yes. The Professional Equity Assessment Report is free, with no obligation to list.
Why do you give a price range instead of one number?
Because adjusted comps rarely land on one exact figure. The range shows where your home really fits, and we choose the list price inside it together.
