Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Stonebridge Capital.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to understand local real estate values.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

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

Quite a few PA homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get.
