Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Willamette Valley Appraisal Professionals.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional 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 an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market.

Selling on your own?

An increasing amount of OR homeowners are making the decision 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 the best price, you need a skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult to be objective about your 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.

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

Give you an advantage while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Help decrease the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to flop

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an inflated assessment of the value of their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order 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, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
