Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Home and Land Appraisal Co. will ensure you get it right.

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 studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to understand local real estate values.

In addition to helping you set a sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very valuable bargaining tool while speaking with a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Make you aware of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help prevent the odds of unidentified problems that cause sales to deteriorate

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they could have gotten originally.
