Read Appraisal Service are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It's something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value report than yours.
