Appraisal services for home sellers - Ian Mckenzie

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

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to get a handle on real estate market forces.

This isn't a discussion of the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

Put buyers at ease with written proof of your home's condition inside and out

It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought.

Others have an an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
