The purpose determines your needs, so why pay for a full appraisal when the right appraisal will do?

True Story:

A family wished to relocate from California to Georgia. Without consulting an appraiser, they placed their home on the open market for a price that they determined would suit their needs. The home sold in 1 day at the list price – this in an area that had a typical list-to-sell cycle of approximately 45 days. At the time of sale, their home appraised at a value of $40,000 higher than their listed sale price. Without a contingency, the sellers had to sell and later stated when asked how they felt: “We got the price we wanted, we made $150,000, anyway”…

Great for the buyer…but who really wants to leave $40,000 on the table?
