Appraisal services for home sellers - Cooper Appraisal Company, Inc.

Getting an appraisal from Cooper Appraisal Company, Inc. before putting your Greenbrier home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few AR homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and for top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it's hard to take an objective look at own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a sensible asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very valuable bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Call attention to any issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Prevent the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to deteriorate

People are surprised when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal 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.
