Why Real Estate Agents Need Appraisers in Their Corner
As a licensed appraiser, I know the value a good appraisal can bring to the table. But you might be surprised by how often my services can benefit real estate agents and brokers! Here are a few key situations where an appraiser can be your secret weapon:
Pre-Listing in a Tough Market: In a buyer’s market or with slow sales, accurate pricing is crucial. An appraisal provides a neutral, data-driven estimate of a property’s fair market value. This helps you set a realistic listing price that attracts buyers and avoids the property languishing on the market.
Unusual Properties: Unique homes or those with extensive renovations can be tricky to value. Appraisers are trained to consider all aspects of a property, not just square footage. Their expertise ensures you price these special properties competitively without leaving money on the table for your client.
Boosting Seller Confidence: Sometimes sellers have unrealistic expectations, or emotional attachment can cloud their judgment. A professional appraisal provides independent validation of the proposed listing price, giving sellers the confidence to move forward with the transaction.
Beyond the Sale: Your network extends beyond just buying and selling. When clients need appraisals for estate settlements or divorces, you can be a trusted resource. Recommend them to an appraiser you know and respect, fostering goodwill and potentially leading to future business.
In today’s market, a strong working relationship with an appraiser is a valuable asset. By understanding the situations where appraisals can benefit your clients, you can become an even more effective real estate professional.
For most home buyers, purchasing real estate is a financial decision that will greatly impact their future. We feel that such an important process should be accompanied by the steady hand and knowledge of a professional; a professional who deals exclusively with home purchases. Securing a buyer broker is an investment within an investment. When you work with one of our buyer brokers, rest assured that you will never overlook a nuance or detail that can severely impact your financial future.
The cost of an appraisal does not compare to the cost of overlooking the importance of seeking professional calculations when making a capital purchase.

So you’ve decided to list your home for sale. If you are like most people your home is your biggest investment and most valuable asset. You may have spent much time and money improving and maintaining your home. The decision to list your home for sale may have been an emotional one, but the list price itself needs to be based on facts. List too low and you may sell quickly but you might be losing money. List too high and you may sit for months going unsold.
If you are a typically motivated seller and you expose your home on the open market to typically motivated buyers, your home should sell at “Market Value”. This is the most likely selling price based upon recent sales of similar homes in your neighborhood. An appraiser is an expert at determining market value.
You may plan on using the services of a local realtor. They should have extensive first-hand knowledge of the market in your neighborhood. Remember, a realtor’s compensation is directly related to if and how much your home sells for. A local appraiser also has extensive knowledge of the market area: in addition they also know current lending guidelines regarding appraisals. Most buyers will be taking a mortgage in order to complete the purchase. Lenders have very specific rules regarding the comparable sales which can be use in a report. Realtors are not always aware of these guidelines. If your buyer is applying for an FHA insured loan there are additional guidelines regarding the physical condition of your property as well. An FHA approved appraiser can make you aware of any defects which need to be corrected prior to listing your home. This will help eliminate the chances of the deal falling through.
By using the services of a licensed or certified local appraiser you will be getting an impartial professional opinion of your homes condition and current market value. They will have first-hand knowledge of current lending guidelines and can take them into consideration when researching and completing your appraisal.
Many people are surprised when they find out their home is worth much more than they estimated, allowing them to list higher than planned. Some owners have an over inflated vision of what their value is and an accurate appraisal helped them to realistically price their home for sale
