For Sale by Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about 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 price to sell at so your property will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer.

Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.Challenge property tax assessmentsLet's say your home is not appreciating as much as other properties nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued.
