Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Branson Appraisals.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

An increasing amount of WA homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser.

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

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

  • Give you an advantage while negotiating when you find a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Help lower the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Others have an an overestimated impression of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than waiting on the market for months.
