Appraisal services for home sellers - Davis Appraisals

Getting an appraisal from Davis Appraisals before putting your Oldham County home on the market saves you time and money.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a 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've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, the appraisal measures your home's market value.

Appraisals are valuable tools for people selling without an agent

An increasing amount of KY homeowners are choosing 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 top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, it's very hard 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 sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very useful 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 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 fall through

It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get. Others have an an inflated opinion 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 waiting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
