Selling your home in or near Polk County? Contact ASAP Appraisal Group and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to get a handle on their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Selling on your own?

Quite a few FL homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, and we understand that it's 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 to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very valuable bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Make you aware of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
Help decrease the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

People are surprised when they find out that the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an inflated assessment when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than 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
