Getting an appraisal from Dixon Appraisal Company, LLC before putting your Dallas County home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it's worth every penny in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to get a handle on local real estate values.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get out of it. You see, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on the true market value of your home. After all, a home is only going to sell for what another person is going to give you.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

More and more Texas homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a professional appraisal. You need an objective opinion, and we understand that it can be very difficult to take an objective look at your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will explain to you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Be a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
  • Prevent the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to flop
People are surprised when they find out their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment when they put a value on their home, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of waiting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while getting nothing done.
