Selling your home in or near Wayne County? Contact Valuation Depot LLC and make sure you're setting the price right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to fully grasp 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 for it. Instead, the appraisal measures your home's market value.

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 sensible asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Allow you to have the edge while negotiating when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
  • Help prevent the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to backslide

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is higher than they originally thought. So by taking the first step and investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they originally thought. Others have an 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 sitting on the market for months.
