Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from AppraiserJoe.com.
Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; 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 their local real estate market.
We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get out of it. Rather, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value.
Technically, something is only worth what another person is offering to pay.

Going to sell your home yourself?
An increasing amount of Indiana homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and for top dollar, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, and we understand that it can be very hard 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 sound asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:
Be a very valuable 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 last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Help prevent the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through
It can be surprising to people when they find out their home's value is higher than they first thought.
So investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they could have originally netted.
Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly - rather than sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while getting nothing done.
Get a professional value opinion before listing
Even if you have an extremely talented agent, it's in your best interest to get an unbiased second opinion of value prior to finalizing a listing contract.
And that's where AppraiserJoe.com comes in. An appraisal can be invaluable in a scenario like this. It will give both you and your agent a complete description of the unique features of your property which will give you insight into how the local real estate market is performing with a detailed analysis of the latest comparable properties in the area.
