Selling your home in or near Kauai County? Contact Miyake Appraisal Kauai LLC and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home. Something is only going to sell for the price another person is willing to pay.

Going to sell your home yourself?

An increasing amount of Hawaii homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, and we understand that it's hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will inform you of what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Be a very useful bargaining tool while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Alert you of issues and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
  • Decrease the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through
It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an inflated impression when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while getting nothing done.
