Putting a house on the market in or near Scurry County? Contact Texas Real Estate Office and make sure you're setting the price right.

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

This isn't a discussion of the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

An increasing amount of TX homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent.

We will tell you 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:

  • Be a very beneficial negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Decrease the possibility of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. So by taking the first step and investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have gotten originally.
