Putting a house on the market in or near Ocean County? Contact Sean Hoerster Appraisal Services, LLC. and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand real estate market forces.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Going to sell your home yourself?

An increasing amount of NJ homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will inform you of what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a astute selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Call attention to any problems and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
  • Help decrease the possibility of hidden problems that cause sales to backslide

People are surprised when they find out their home's value is a great deal more than they thought. So by taking the first step and spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Others have an an exaggerated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of sitting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
