Appraisal needed?

Whether you need an appraisal depends on how you are financing the purchase. Most lenders require an independent appraisal as part of the loan underwriting process to confirm the property value supports the loan amount. Cash buyers are not required to get one, though it is often worth the cost for protection. In Weeki Wachee and throughout Hernando County, Florida, appraisals typically cost between $400 and $600 for a standard single-family residence and are ordered by the lender through an appraisal management company after a contract is executed. The appraiser will inspect the property and compare it against recent sold data in the area to produce a value conclusion. If you are a cash buyer and want the comfort of an independent value opinion before closing, you can hire a licensed Florida appraiser directly. It is an optional but reasonable safeguard on any purchase, particularly for properties that are difficult to comp, such as waterfront homes, acreage, or unusual floor plans.

One of the things that I offer all my clients, is a free appraisal of the home. Aside from doing a very accurate market value analysis myself, I also add the free appraisal so that the homeowner can not only verify the accuracy of my value, but it will also come in handy to counter any low ball offers or a bad appraisal from a financing institution not to mention that when the listing goes up with " recently appraised", it will sell faster and attract better prospects (my experience). To add a layer of security, your realtor should continually check market activity to adjust value accordingly. Ask one of your local realtors for an a cma and appraisal option. Margend 305-281-1115.

PROPERLY valuing a property is what quality agents do. Trusting a "free" online resource is dangerous. If you put junk in you get junk out. Unlike the average agent, I use 8,9 or 10 different resources to come up with a more accurate valuation of a property. Have an agent help you with this.
