Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Mitchell Appraisals will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

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. A home is only going to sell for what another person is willing to pay.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few Florida homeowners are making the decision 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 for top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, it's very hard to take an objective look at 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.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help 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
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Call attention to any issues and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help decrease the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop

It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they could have originally banked. Alternatively, some people have an inflated impression of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, which means no offers and no closing, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while your home sits on the market.
