Putting a house on the market in or near Dallas County? Contact Greg Scorza Real Estate Appraiser and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to understand local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures your home's market value. A home is only going to sell for the price another person is willing to give you.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

An increasing amount of Texas 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, quickly and for the best price, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get 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 tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a sound asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Give you an advantage while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Help prevent the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to go up in smoke
People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally expected. Others have an an exaggerated impression of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced 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.
