Selling your home in or near Clark County? Contact Anderson & Associates and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is absolutely necessary. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a 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.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

Quite a few WA homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard 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.

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

Allow you to have the edge while negotiating when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
Make you aware of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Decrease the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to flop

It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done

Get a comprehensive appraisal before listing

You may have a very skillful agent but it's definitely a good idea to get of your home's value to signing a listing agreement. And that's where Anderson & Associates comes in.
