A new online calculator developed by Bizportal allows users to check real estate transaction prices within specific buildings by entering an address. This tool aims to provide a "valuation estimate" for property owners and potential buyers.
The calculator accesses a database of 3.8 million real estate transactions, compiled by lawyer Guy Zomer. Zomer made this extensive data publicly available, noting that official tax authority databases are far more limited in scope and search capabilities. The tool enables users to see how much their neighbors have sold their apartments for, thereby informing them of their own property's value.
Users input a city, street, and building number to access a "building card" detailing its construction year, number of floors, and a table of all transactions. It also shows the sales history for apartments that have been sold multiple times. This information is crucial for appraisers and banks when determining property values, and the calculator streamlines this research process.
