Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Toni Chiban Appraisal Services.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

You're probably focused on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Rather, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on how much your home will bring on the open market. At the end of the day, your house is only worth what another person is willing to pay.

For Sale By Owner?

Quite a few North Carolina homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, it's very hard to take an objective look at your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will inform you of what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

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

Allow you to have the edge while negotiating once you have a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Help prevent the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to deteriorate

It can be surprising to people to discover their home's value is higher than they originally thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they originally expected. Others have an an exaggerated opinion of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Asking too much for a home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while your house waits for a buyer.
