Selling your home in or near Saint Clair County? Contact Appraisal Dynamic and make sure you're setting the price right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to get a handle on local real estate values.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Rather, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home. Something is only going to sell for the price another person is going to give you.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

An increasing amount of Michigan 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, with minimal waiting and for the best price, you need a qualified appraiser. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, and we understand that it's difficult to take an objective look at 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.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Be a very helpful negotiating tool while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Call attention to any problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Decrease the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide
Folks are sometimes surprised to discover their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they could have originally gotten. Others have an an overestimated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of sitting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home causes buyers to back off, which means no offers and no closing, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while getting nothing done.
