Appraisal services for home sellers - Tim Roderigues

Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Tim Roderigues will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to get a handle on local real estate values.

This isn't a discussion of the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

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

Quite a few CA 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 top dollar, you need a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, 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 inform you of 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:

Be a very useful negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Lower the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that the value of their home is higher than they first thought. So investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done

You may have an extremely skillful agent but it's in your best interest to get an objective third-party's opinion of your home's value to signing a listing agreement. And that's where Tim Roderigues comes in. We can provide you with a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate writeup of your home's characteristics and a detailed breakdown of the most recent and similar comparable sales which we typically refer to as "comps" in the appraisal industry.
