Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Appraisals are valuable tools for families selling without an agent

Quite a few NC homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and for the best price, you need a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, it can be very difficult to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a realistic asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very beneficial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Call attention to any problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Help lower the possibility of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised to discover the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an exaggerated impression when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
