Selling your home in or near Coos County? Contact Spyglass Valuation Services (541) 347-1150 and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand their local real estate market.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, 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 going to sell for the price another person is going to give you.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few Oregon homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and for top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. You need an objective opinion, and we understand that it's hard to take an objective look at 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 sensible selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Help lower the possibility of unrevealed problems that cause sales to deteriorate
Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they thought they would get. Others have an an exaggerated opinion of their home's value, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while you're in Real Estate "limbo".
