Pre-listing Services/For Sale by OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Teton Appraisals & Consulting, Inc., are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value conclusion than yours.Challenge Teton County's assessment of your propertyYour local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in an area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other properties close by.
