Getting an appraisal from Haslett Appraisal before putting your Iredell County home on the market saves you time and money.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth every penny in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand their local real estate market.

It's tempting to want to base your home's value on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want for it. You see, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value. Technically, something is only worth what another person is going to pay.

Appraisals are valuable tools for people selling without an agent

More and more North Carolina homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, with minimal waiting and for top dollar, you need a expert appraiser. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, and we understand that it's hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will explain to 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 helpful bargaining tool while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Prevent the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through
Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get. Others have an an overestimated assessment when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of waiting on the market for months. Asking too much for a home causes buyers to back off, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
