Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Shoup Appraisal will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Selling on your own?

More and more KS homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance 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. The best thing to have is objective opinions, it can be very 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:

  • Allow you to have the edge 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 problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Lower the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to backslide

People are surprised when they find out their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an inflated impression when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly 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.
