Selling your home in or near Medina County? Contact FIVE STAR APPRAISALS, LLC. and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. 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 practically impossible for them to get a handle on local real estate values.

You're probably thinking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market. After all, a home is only going to sell for what another person is offering to pay.
