Getting an appraisal from
A & C Appraisal Services before putting your Sahuarita or Green Valley home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning to sell your home, it might be a wise decision to make a small investment in a professional appraisal. Unless you study real estate values on a day-to-day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it is difficult for you to get a handle on real estate values.  

We aren't talking about how much you invested in your home, how much you paid for it, or how much you want for it. We're talking about the true market value of your home, which could really pay off for you in the long run!

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more homeowners today are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. Selling your home by this method can end up saving you a potential "hefty" commission (industry average is 5-7% of the home's selling price).  Plus, many FSBO sellers feel that they have more control in the process of selling their home since they are in essence making all the rules. But, selling your home on your own will require a significant amount of "homework" if you are going to do it right.  One piece of advice that is constantly given by the experts in selling your home FSBO...Do NOT "Overprice" Your Home! It is very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and 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 so your home will attract buyers, but a professional appraisal can also:

  • Be a very useful negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Alert you of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Lower the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to deteriorate

It can be surprising to people when they find out their home's value is a great deal more than they thought. So, spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an inflated impression of the value of their home; by getting an appraisal it helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
