Putting a house on the market in or near Orange County? Contact A.M. Appraisal and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp their local real estate market.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Appraisals are valuable tools for homeowners selling without an agent

More and more CA 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, what you need is a expert appraiser. You need objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult 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.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Give you an advantage while negotiating once you have a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Help lower the chances of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide

People are surprised when they find out their home's value is a great deal more than they thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an overestimated assessment when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
