For Sale By Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesIt's very hard to be objective about your home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Professional Appraisals are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value assessment than yours.

At Professional Appraisals, we're experts in helping people just like you do away with unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.
