Professional appraisers, like the ones at Sun Valuations, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's market value, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.Challenging Delaware County's assessment of your propertyYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that is going down.
