Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Vanali Associates Inc.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures your home's market value.
