A home appraisal is a key element required by brokers and potential buyers. It is the best way to know a home’s value. The final selling price could be higher or lower than the appraisal price. A lot of that is determined by the market and inspection but it all begins with the appraisal. If you want to get the most value for your appraisal, then consider the following tips:
Upgrade Lawn
Homes that sell during the winter back east can be hidden in a blanket of snow. Phoenix homeowners aren’t so lucky. That is why it is important to keep your lawns well maintained. It can help to spruce things up by adding potted plants and doing necessary pruning. A good power washing of your entire home can also spruce things up quite a bit.
Make Repairs
Cracks in the plaster. Holes in the wall. Windows that are stuck. These are all the types of minor repairs you keep meaning to take care of. It would be best to make those repairs before the appraiser comes by. A good approach to taking care of these minor repairs is to hire a handyman for the day. It would be money well spent to turn over the repair list to them.
Write Out Your Renovations
Any renovation you made was probably done so with a hope for a decent return on your investment. That can happen but first you have to let the appraiser know you made those renovations. Just because your new kitchen looks great doesn’t mean the appraiser will know you spent money to get it that way. Those investments matter and should be pulled together on a single list.
