Putting a house on the market in or near Orange County? Contact A.M. Appraisal and make sure you're setting the price right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to get a handle on local real estate values.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Going to sell your home yourself?

An increasing amount of CA 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 the best price, what you need is a skilled appraiser. The best thing to have is objective opinions, and we understand that it's hard to take an objective look at 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:

Give you an advantage while negotiating while speaking with 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
Prevent the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to backslide

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they thought they would get. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated impression when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
