Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Doll Appraisal Service will ensure you get it right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on the true market value of your home.

Selling on your own?

More and more KS homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent.

We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very beneficial bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
  • Lower the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to backslide

It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an exaggerated impression of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of sitting on the market for months.
