Appraisal services for home sellers - Palmetto Valuation Services

Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Palmetto Valuation Services will ensure you get it right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is absolutely necessary. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

Selling on your own?

An increasing amount of SC homeowners are deciding 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, with minimal waiting and for the best price, what you need is a qualified appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it's 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 selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very helpful negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help prevent the odds of unidentified problems that cause sales to flop

People are surprised to discover the value of their home is much more than they thought. So by taking the first step and investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an inflated impression when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable 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.
