Putting a house on the market in or near Orange County? Contact Eastside Appraisals, LLC and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; 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 their local real estate market.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Selling on your own?

Quite a few FL homeowners are choosing 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 for the best price, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it can be 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.

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

  • Allow you to have the edge while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Help decrease the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised when they find out that 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 provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of sitting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
