Putting a house on the market in or near Collin County? Contact Ashe Appraisal, LLC and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only worth what another person is willing to give you.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few Texas 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 to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, and we understand that it's hard 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 selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Give you an advantage while bargaining once you have a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Lower the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to backslide
It can be surprising to people when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated opinion of their home's value, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than sitting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
