Getting an appraisal from C.S. Heaton Appraisals Inc before putting your Maricopa County home on the market saves you time and money.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses your home's market value. After all, a home is only worth the price another person is willing to pay.

Appraisals are valuable tools for people selling without an agent

Quite a few Arizona homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and for the best price, you need a skilled appraiser. You need an objective opinion, it's very difficult to take an objective look at your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

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

Be a very useful bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
Make you aware of problems and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help decrease the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to deteriorate

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out their home's value is higher than they first thought. So investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly - instead of gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while you're in Real Estate "limbo".
