When we sit down with our sellers to discuss pricing, we typically use a property appraisal and a comparative market analysis (CMA) as our guides. While property appraisals are a buyer necessity, we recommend that our sellers receive a property appraisal also. We feel so strongly about this that we offer a free property appraisal to our valued sellers.
What Is a Property Appraisal?
A property appraisal, also called a home estimate, is a type of inspection (not to be confused with a home inspection that occurs before closing) that estimates how much money a buyer might be allowed to borrow to purchase a home. An unbiased professional performs the appraisal and provides a detailed report.
At Ft. Lauderdale Realty, we believe the information obtained from a property appraisal should factor into the home’s list price. For this reason, we recommend that our sellers take advantage of our free property appraisal before listing their homes.
Benefits of a Property Appraisal
A property appraisal helps sellers fairly price their property, leading to more money and a faster sale. Here are a few additional benefits of getting a property appraisal before you list:
- An appraisal helps the seller avoid unnecessary financial strain by ensuring they don’t price their property too low.
- When you consider appraisal results in your home’s price, it is less likely to become “stale” on the real estate market.
- Your real estate agent can share appraisal results with buyers’ agents, making the home’s price more attractive to potential buyers.
