Pre-purchase appraisal

Pre-Purchase Appraisal

You have been waiting on the sidelines and finally decided that now is the time to buy in Alpharetta. You fall in love with a home, but there are a few questions. How much is the home really worth? Is the asking price in the proper range? Are there other people making better offers? What should I do?

Fortunately, the answer is simple.

A pre-purchase appraisal from Alpharetta Home Appraiser can play an essential role in almost every sale involving real estate property. This might be to determine the sale price, help negotiate a fair sale price, or to set an offering price. Whenever typical financing is being used to purchase a property, the lender will require an appraisal to determine the current market value of the property. The market value is needed to assist the lender in deciding whether or not to approve the requested loan amount. Appraisals performed for typical financing purposes are held to a high standard, which Alpharetta Home Appraiser is no stranger to. The accuracy of the appraisal is one of the cornerstones of the lending process.

Alpharetta Home Appraiser is your best choice for a pre-purchase appraisal for these many reasons:

  • An objective, unbiased, third-party independent appraisal will give you an accurate reflection of the value of the property you want to purchase and a solid basis for an offer.
  • This information can be shared with the real estate and owner to show them an actual market value.
  • An appraisal can reflect if the market is going up or down, so your offer can then reflect the current market conditions.
  • Many buyers can use the appraisal for tax abatement after they purchase their new home if the assessment is too high.
  • There are times the appraisal can be used by your lender during the financing process. This may not always be the case. Talk to your appraiser about that possibility.
  • There are times when a buyer and seller agree on a price and when the appraisal is done for the bank, the value does not match. A pre-purchase appraisal by Alpharetta Home Appraiser can help avoid this.
