Appraisal services for home sellers - David C. Creen Appraiser

Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from David C. Creen Appraiser will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand the nuances of real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Rather, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

Selling on your own?

More and more MA homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a expert appraiser. You need objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult 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.

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

Allow you to have the edge while negotiating when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Help lower the odds of hidden problems that cause sales to deteriorate

People are surprised when they find out their home's value is a great deal more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated impression of their home's value, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
