Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Cynthia A. Johnson.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market.
