Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from G. Kutz Appraisals 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 an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market. Technically, something is only worth the price another person is offering to pay.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

More and more Pennsylvania 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 to get the most you can, what you need is a qualified appraiser. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, and we understand that 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 sound 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
  • Call attention to any problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
  • Lower the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to backslide
It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they could have originally banked. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - rather than waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
