    If you have a recent appraisal for your home, that would work. 

     

    Otherwise, for these purposes, you can reasonably use an average of a few fair market values for your home as reflected on various home realty sales sites online.   

     

    You're being asked for this because your home mortgage interest deduction on Schedule A may be limited when your home loan amount exceeds the fair market value of your home.  See the IRS' Publication 936, Home Mortgage Interest Deduction for more information.
