Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Rather, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

An increasing amount of CA homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent, especially with the uncertainty of what fees are going to be. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it can be very difficult to take an objective look at own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will inform you of what you need to know, not just what you want to hear, even if that means we have to tell you facts you might not want to hear or think.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a REALISTIC selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

• Be a very beneficial bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer and ward off those investors willing to pay cash for you house, while ripping you off
• Put buyers at ease with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
• Alert you of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing (certain types of buyer's loans can be very restrictive and specific about perceived "minor" condition issues)
• Lower the odds of unidentified problems that cause sales to deteriorate or completely disappear all together

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is different than they thought. So by taking the first step and investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more or less than they expected they would get. Most people want to sell quickly, so having an over-priced home on the market for months can be frustrating. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done. Spending money on an appraiser might initially sound like a waste of money, but ask yourself how much your time and energy is worth.
