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

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it's worth the money 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 real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only worth the price another person is going to give you.

Selling on your own?

An increasing amount of Texas homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult 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.

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

Be a very helpful negotiating tool while speaking with a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Help lower the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to deteriorate

People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is much more than they thought. So taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they could have originally banked. Others have an an inflated assessment of their home's value, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - rather than waiting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
