Selling your home in or near Pottawatomie County? Contact Grace and Sons Appraisal and make sure you're setting the price right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional 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 a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

You're probably fixated on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get out of it. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home. Something is only worth the price another person is going to give you.

For Sale By Owner?

An increasing amount of Oklahoma homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a qualified appraiser. You need an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will explain to you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a sensible selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining when you find a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Lower the possibility of unrevealed problems that cause sales to backslide
People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than waiting 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.
