Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to get a handle on real estate market forces.
You're probably thinking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get out of it. You see, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.
Something is only going to sell for what another person is willing to give you.

Appraisals are valuable tools for homeowners selling without an agent
More and more Florida homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a expert appraiser. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, it's very difficult to be objective about 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 sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
- Be a very beneficial bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
- Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
- Call attention to any issues and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
- Decrease the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to deteriorate
People are surprised to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed.
So taking the first step and investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they could have originally banked.
Others have an an inflated impression of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of gathering dust 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.
