Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that's declining or not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours. That only means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC is your strongest weapon.
