Putting a house on the market in or near Warren County? Contact Wahl Appraisal Service and make sure you're setting the price 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 in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to get a handle on their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining when you find a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Call attention to any problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Prevent the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to flop

People are surprised when they find out that their home's value is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they originally expected.
