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 the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand 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. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market.

An increasing amount of AL homeowners are choosing 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, you need a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, it's very 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.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a astute selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very beneficial negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer

Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help lower the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to flop

People are surprised when they find out that the value of their home is much more than they thought.
