See what your property is actually worth
Until now, the current value of a property was whatever you typed in, or a guess based on an appreciation rate you picked yourself. Now vHop works it out from what homes like yours have really been selling for. Search for your building, tell us how big it is, and you'll see an up-to-date value, where the number came from, and what your return has been.
Adding things to your portfolio got easier too: both properties and vehicles are now added in three short steps instead of one long form.
- A real market value for your property. Pick your building or community and we'll estimate what it's worth today from recent sales nearby, so the value in your portfolio reflects the market rather than a guess.
- See exactly how we got there. Every valuation shows how many sales it's based on, the range they fell in, and a plain-English breakdown of how the figure was worked out. It's an estimate, and we say so.
- Search for your building. Start typing and pick your tower, community or area from the list. Your city and address fill themselves in.
- Your return, worked out for you. See what you've gained or lost since you bought, in both money and percentage terms, plus your average return per year.
- Keep your own number if you prefer. If you'd rather set the value yourself, you can, and we'll leave it alone until you ask us to refresh it.
- Refresh whenever you like. Re-check any property's value from your list at any time.
- A simpler way to add a property. Adding a property is now three short steps: where it is, what you paid, and anything else you'd like to add. Optional details are tucked into the last step, so there's much less to fill in before you're done.
- A simpler way to add a vehicle. Adding a vehicle now follows the same three steps: what it is, what you paid, and anything else you'd like to add. Registration numbers, VINs, colour and notes are all optional and wait until the end, so you can add a car in seconds.
- Editing a vehicle is still a single page. Corrections shouldn't mean clicking through a wizard, so editing shows everything at once.
- Plainer language throughout the form. Questions like "Nature of Holding" and "Survey No" are now asked the way a person would ask them.
- Scrolling through search results. Long lists in the property location search and the country picker can now be scrolled properly.
- Large amounts read correctly. Big valuations no longer show stray decimal places.
- Vehicle type is no longer missed. The vehicle form marked the type as required but still let you save without choosing one. It now asks before you move on.
