Selling your home in or near Sacramento County? Contact Allred Certified Appraisals and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get out of it. Rather, an appraisal assesses your home's market value. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only worth the price another person is offering to give you.

Going to sell your home yourself?

Quite a few California 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, quickly and for the best price, you need a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult to take an objective look at your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will explain to you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very helpful bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Call attention to any problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Prevent the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
