Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Day Appraisal Company, Inc. will ensure you get it right.

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 makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand the nuances of real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

Quite a few MN homeowners are choosing 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 to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, and we understand that it's hard to take an objective look at 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.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a astute asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Call attention to any issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Lower the chances of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is more than they originally believed. So investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment of their home's value, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of waiting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.

Get a comprehensive appraisal before listing

Even if you have with the most experienced agent, it's definitely a good idea to get an objective third-party's opinion of value prior to finalizing a listing agreement. And that's where Day Appraisal Company, Inc. comes in. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal that will let you and your agent have an accurate writeup of your home's features and a detailed breakdown of the newest and similar comparable sales or as they're commonly called, "comps".
