Start with your purchase period
Use the quarter closest to when you bought the home and the value you want to adjust, such as purchase price.
Then compare it with the latest imported FHFA HPI® period for your 3-digit ZIP region.
Interpret the answer carefully
If the index suggests a large increase, that can be a useful signal for refinance or sale planning.
Before acting, compare the estimate with local sales, property condition, loan payoff, and transaction costs.
