Appraisal services for home sellers - DLO Appraisal Services, LLC

Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from DLO Appraisal Services, LLC will ensure you get it right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a must. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; 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 difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

Quite a few FL homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and for top dollar, you need a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, 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.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very beneficial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Help lower the odds of unidentified problems that cause sales to flop

It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is higher than they originally thought. So investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally thought. Others have an an inflated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of gathering dust 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.

Get a professional value opinion before listing

You may have a highly skillful agent but it's in your best interest to have an unbiased second opinion of value prior to signing a listing agreement. And that's where DLO Appraisal Services, LLC comes in. We can provide you with a pre-listing appraisal that will let you and your agent have a definitive description of your home's characteristics and a detailed breakdown of the newest and similar comparable sales which we typically refer to as "comps" in the appraisal industry.
