Appraisal services for home sellers - Premier Appraisal of SoCal

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Premier Appraisal of SoCal.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's difficult 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. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more CA homeowners are making the decision 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, with minimal waiting and for top dollar, you need a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, 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 tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

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

Be a very useful bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Call attention to any problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Prevent the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of their home's value, 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 rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.

Even if you have with a very skilled agent, it's definitely a good idea to get of value prior to signing a listing agreement. And that's where Premier Appraisal of SoCal comes in. We can provide you with a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your home's characteristics and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales which we typically refer to as "comps" in the appraisal industry.
