Appraisal services for home sellers - Wilkinson Rodriguez and Associates

Getting an appraisal from Wilkinson Rodriguez and Associates before putting your Travis 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 the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to fully grasp their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more TX homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and for top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, and we understand that it can be very hard to be objective about 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 astute asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Give you an advantage while negotiating when you find a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Make you aware of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Decrease the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide

It can be surprising to people when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they thought they would get. Others have an an overestimated assessment of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
