Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Genesis Appraisal Services.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a step in the right direction. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand their local real estate market.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you need to get for it. You see, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only going to sell for what another person is going to give you.

Selling on your own?

Quite a few Ohio 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, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a qualified appraiser. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, and we understand that it can be very difficult to take an objective look at 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 realistic asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Help prevent the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to flop
It can be surprising to people when they find out the value of their home is higher than they first thought. So investing in an appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they thought they would get. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated opinion of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, which means no offers and no closing, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while you're in Real Estate "limbo".

Even if you're working with a very skilled agent, it's in your best interest to have an objective third-party's opinion of your home's value before signing a listing contract. Genesis Appraisal Services can help. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal that will let you and your agent have an accurate summarizing of your home's characteristics and a detailed analysis of the the latest and similar comparable sales or as they're commonly called, "comps".
