Putting a house on the market in or near Lake County? Contact White Tiger Appraisals, Inc. and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on putting your house on the market soon, an appraisal is a step in the right direction. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth every penny in the long run! Unless a homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home. A home is only going to sell for the price another person is offering to pay.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

More and more Florida 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, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. You need an objective opinion, 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.

In addition to helping you set a sound selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Be a very beneficial negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease 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 delay a closing
  • Decrease the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to go up in smoke
People are surprised to discover their home's value is higher than they originally thought. So spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they could have originally banked. Others have an an exaggerated impression of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than gathering dust 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.
