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

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; 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 hard for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on the true market value of your home.

Appraisals are valuable tools for people selling without an agent

More and more MT homeowners are making the decision 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, with minimal waiting and for top dollar, what you need is a qualified appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it can be very hard to be objective about your 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 astute selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very valuable bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
  • Lower the chances of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop

It can be surprising to people when they find out their home's value is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an exaggerated impression when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
