Do You Know What Your House Is Really Worth Right Now?

Carol Peak September 22, 2025

If you own a home anywhere in Southeast Alabama — from Dothan to Ozark, Enterprise to Headland — it might be worth a lot more than you think.

Most homeowners underestimate the equity they’ve built. But with home values rising steadily across the Wiregrass region in the last few years, your property could be holding tens of thousands in unlocked potential.

What’s Home Equity — and Why It Matters

Home equity is simple:

 

Your Home’s Current Market Value
– What You Still Owe on Your Mortgage
Your Equity
 
Let’s say your home is worth $280,000 and you owe $160,000. You’re sitting on $120,000 of equity.
That’s not just a number. That’s real money you can use to upgrade, downsize, invest — or cash out.

Why So Many Homeowners Are Sitting on Hidden Value

  1. Prices in the Wiregrass Have Gone Up Even if the market has leveled off a bit nationally, our region still sees steady growth. Southeast Alabama homes — especially brick homes with land or in desirable school zones — have appreciated significantly since 2019.
     
  2. You’ve Likely Lived There a While If you’ve been in your home 5+ years, you’ve paid down a chunk of your mortgage and gained value. That combo builds equity fast — and most people don’t even realize it.

What Can You Do With Your Equity?

Your equity can help you:

  • Move up to a bigger home
     
  • Downsize and keep cash in the bank
     
  • Pay for renovations or updates
     
  • Tap into value without selling, through a refinance or equity loan
     
  • Use it as leverage to invest in rental properties or land

Local Example

A home in Rehobeth, Alabama I sold recently had jumped $52,000 in value in just 3 years — without the owner doing any major upgrades. When we listed, she walked away with more profit than she ever expected.
