Appraisal services for home sellers - Hill Appraisal

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Hill Appraisal.

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

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value.

Selling on your own?

Quite a few AL 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, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, what you need is a qualified appraiser. You need objective opinions, it can be very 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 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 the condition of your home inside and out
Alert you of issues and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Decrease the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to backslide

It can be surprising to people when they find out their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally thought. Others have an an inflated assessment when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of sitting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
