Putting a house on the market in or near Tulsa County? Contact Peterson Appraisals and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to fully grasp real estate market forces.

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

For Sale By Owner?

More and more OK homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent.

We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

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

  • Be a very useful bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Make you aware of issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Decrease the possibility of hidden problems that cause sales to flop

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they originally thought. Others have an an exaggerated impression when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months.
