Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Holmes Appraisal Service.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is absolutely necessary. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to fully grasp real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.
