Getting an appraisal from Brissey Realty LLC before putting your Dubuque County home on the market saves you time and money.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you 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 their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few IA 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, quickly and for the best price, what you need is a qualified appraiser. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it's difficult to take an objective look at 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 asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Help prevent the possibility of unrevealed problems that cause sales to deteriorate

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that their home's value is higher than they first thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of waiting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
