Selling your home in or near Taylor County? Contact Kendall Cooper and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

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 thousands more than they thought they would get.
