Getting an appraisal from Crowe Appraisals before putting your Oklahoma County home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is absolutely necessary. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Selling on your own?

An increasing amount of OK homeowners are making the decision 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, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to take an objective look at 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 will getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very beneficial negotiating tool while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
  • Call attention to any problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Lower the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is higher than they first thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated impression of their home's value, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than waiting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
