Appraisal services for home sellers - Gail Wagner

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Gail Wagner.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to fully grasp 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. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

An increasing amount of OH homeowners are choosing 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, with minimal waiting and for the best price, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it can be very difficult to take an objective look at 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 to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Allow you to have the edge while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Make you aware of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Decrease the possibility of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide

It can be surprising to people when they find out their home's value is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they thought they would get. Others have an an exaggerated assessment of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of waiting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.

Get a comprehensive appraisal before listing

You may have a very skillful agent but it's definitely a good idea to get of value prior to finalizing a listing agreement. Let Gail Wagner help. We can provide you with a pre-listing appraisal that will let you and your agent have a precise writeup of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales which we typically refer to as "comps" in the appraisal industry.
