Getting an appraisal from Vincent Thomas before putting your Bronx County home on the market saves you time and money.

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

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Selling on your own?

More and more NY homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, and we understand that it's hard to be objective about 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.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very valuable bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Prevent the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they thought they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of waiting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.

And that's where Vincent Thomas comes in. An appraisal can be indispensable in this scenario.
