Putting a house on the market in or near Pasco County? Contact Tanya K. Birren 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's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

You, as a homeowner, might be thinking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. You see, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only worth what another person is going to pay.

Appraisals are valuable tools for homeowners selling without an agent

More and more Florida homeowners are choosing 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 top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult 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.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a realistic asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very helpful negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Call attention to any issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help lower the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to deteriorate

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an inflated assessment when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave them the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly - instead of sitting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home causes buyers to back off, which means no offers and no closing, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while your home sits on the market.

Get a professional value opinion before listing

You may have an extremely skilled agent, but it's definitely a good idea to get an unbiased second opinion of your home's value before signing a listing agreement. Tanya K. Birren can help. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate summarizing of your home's characteristics and a detailed breakdown of the the newest and similar comparable sales or as they're commonly called, "comps".
