Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and 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 hard for them to understand the nuances of real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Going to sell your home yourself?

An increasing amount of CT 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, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a expert appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it can be very difficult to take an objective look at 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.

In addition to helping you set a sensible asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very useful bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Call attention to any problems and get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help decrease the chances of hidden problems that cause sales to flop

People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So by taking the first step and spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an exaggerated impression of the value of their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than sitting on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
