Getting an appraisal from Spencer Appraisal Services, Inc. before putting your Abington home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is absolutely necessary. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Selling on your own?

An increasing amount of PA homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent.

You need objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a astute selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Give you an advantage while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Alert you of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Help decrease the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment of the value of their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
