How accurate is the automated estimate?

An estimate from comparable listings gives a good range, but doesn't account for your home's condition, floor or layout. The exact figure comes from an agent who sees the home.

Where do I see prices for my area?

See the median prices for your area and property type on the "Property prices" pages — they are based on real asking prices and update weekly.

Is valuing a home free?

Yes. Both the automated estimate and an agent valuation are usually free and non-binding.

When is it worth valuing a home?

Always before a decision to sell, but also out of simple interest — many people track their home’s value a year or two before selling.

How to value your home

By the Leia maakler editorial team · Last updated: June 2026

Before selling, it pays to know what your home is really worth. Here's how to estimate it realistically — without over- or under-pricing.

In short

Look at what comparable properties currently for sale cost in your area (€/m²).
Account for condition, floor, age and location — they swing the price by tens of percent.
The asking price isn't the transaction price; a local agent gives an exact valuation for free.

Start from comparable listings

The simplest starting point is to see what similar homes in your area are listed for. Check the median price (€/m²) in your area and multiply it by your home's floor area for a first range.

Choose comparables as similar as possible: same area, close size, number of rooms and year built. The closer the comparison, the more reliable the estimate.

Account for what moves the price

The median is a starting point, but your specific home can differ a lot. The biggest factors:

Location and building — within the same district, the price can vary building to building.
Condition and renovation — a fresh renovation raises the price, a home needing work lowers it.
Floor and view — in an apartment block both the floor and a lift matter.
Year built and energy efficiency — a newer, more efficient home is worth more.
Layout — a well-thought-out layout sells better than the same square metres laid out poorly.

The asking price is not the transaction price

On portals you see asking prices — what sellers hope to get. The actual transaction price is often lower (negotiation, market conditions). Asking prices give a good read on expectations; for broader context see the Estonian property-market overview.

Get a local agent to value it — free

The most accurate figure comes from a local agent who sees your home's condition and knows the area's buyers — usually free and non-binding. Enter your address — see an instant estimate and request a free exact valuation from the most active agents in your area.
