What should I pay attention to when requesting a home appraisal?

In order to sell a house or condominium, the first step is to request an appraisal. The first step to selling real estate at a high price is to find a company that will sell it at a high price. In addition, there are some things to be aware of when requesting an appraisal. In this article, we will explain the "precautions of the home appraisal".

■Types of home appraisals

First, I will explain the types of home appraisals. There are three methods of home appraisal: 1) Anonymous simulation appraisal "Anonymous simulation appraisal" refers to a free service on the Internet that allows instantaneous real estate appraisal by programming such as AI. It's called anonymous because it doesn't require you to enter personal information like your phone number or address. Anonymous simulation appraisals do not receive sales calls from real estate companies even if you request an appraisal. Anonymous simulation assessments are highly accurate for condominiums, so condominiums can be used as a reference. On the other hand, most detached houses have low credibility, and it is wise not to use anonymous simulations for detached houses. 2) Desk-top appraisal A “desk-top appraisal” is an appraisal conducted by a sales representative of a real estate company based on materials such as a residential map, a certified copy of a register, and past transaction examples in the surrounding area without looking at the property. Since we do not conduct on-site surveys, the price does not reflect noise, vibration, views, design, whether or not there will be renovations, etc. The biggest difference is that anonymous simulation assessments are all done by computers, while desktop assessments are done by humans. If it is a desk appraisal, the appraisal accuracy of the detached house will be correspondingly higher. 3) On-site assessment A “visit assessment” is an assessment performed by a sales representative of a real estate company who actually looks at a property. The accuracy of the price is the highest because it is possible to check the condition of the property and interview the seller to make an assessment. The results of the on-site appraisal are important reference materials for determining the selling price. If you do not set an appropriate selling price, it will lead to failures such as "too cheap to lose money or too expensive to sell", so a visit assessment is necessary before selling.
