Real Estate Appraisals For Sellers

Getting an appraisal before putting your real estate on the market saves you time and money.

If you’re planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn’t cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it’s hard for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

It’s tempting to want to base your home’s value on how much you’ve spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on the true market value of your home. A home is only worth what another person is offering to pay.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you’re going to do it right, quickly and for the best price, what you need is a qualified appraiser. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, we’re human too, we understand its difficult hard to take an objective look at your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a sound selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

• Give you an advantage while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
• Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
• Make you aware of issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
• Lower the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated impression of their home’s value, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home – allowing them to quickly sell it – instead of waiting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
