Getting an appraisal from Motto Appraisal Service before putting your Trophy Club home on the market saves you time and money.
Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to get a handle on real estate market forces.
It's tempting to want to base your home's value on how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.
A home is only worth what another person is going to give you.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?
Quite a few Texas 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 expert appraiser. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, 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.
In addition to helping you set a sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
- Give you an advantage while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
- Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
- Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
- Lower the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide
People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought.
So taking the first step and spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they could have originally gotten.
Others have an an exaggerated opinion when they put a value on their home, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than sitting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
