Appraisal services for home sellers - Trostel Appraisals

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Trostel Appraisals .

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money 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 get a handle on real estate market forces.

This isn't a discussion of how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few TX homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and for the best price, you need a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it's difficult to be objective about your 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.

In addition to helping you set a astute asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very valuable bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
Make you aware of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Lower the chances of hidden problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

People are surprised when they find out that 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 several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an inflated assessment of their home's value, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
