Putting a house on the market in or near Orange County? Contact Alan Partch 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's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

Quite a few 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 to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it can be very difficult 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 sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Give you an advantage while negotiating once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Help lower the possibility of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop

People are surprised to discover the value of their home is higher than they first thought. So investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an overestimated impression when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
