Getting an appraisal from A. M. Appraisals before putting your West Columbia home on the market saves you time and money.

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 a homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

Quite a few SC homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and for top dollar, what you need is a expert appraiser. 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 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 sensible asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Give you an advantage while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Alert you of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Prevent the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to deteriorate

It can be surprising to people to discover their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated assessment of the value of their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.

It will give both you and your agent a complete description for your property and its features and give you insight into the health of the local real estate market with a record of recent comparable properties in the area.
