Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn’t cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it’s hard for them to fully grasp real estate market forces.
We are not talking about how much you’ve spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. You see, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home’s market value. Technically, something is only going to sell for what another person is offering to pay.

For Sale By Owner?
An increasing amount of Texas homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a professional appraisal. You need an objective opinion, and we understand that it’s hard to be objective about your 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.
In addition to helping you set a sensible selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
- Give you an advantage while bargaining once you have a potential buyer
- Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
- Make you aware of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
- Help lower the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to deteriorate
It can be surprising to people when they find out the value of their home is higher than they first thought. So taking the first step and investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they expected they would get. Others have an an overestimated assessment of their home’s value, and an appraisal gave them the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly – instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
