Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from True Value Appraisals will ensure you get it 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 in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

  • Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
  • Prevent the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is higher than they first thought. So by taking the first step and spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they thought they would get. Others have an an overestimated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than sitting on the market for months.
