Appraisal services for home sellers - Chester Neve

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Chester Neve.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand their local real estate market.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

Selling on your own?

More and more PA 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, quickly and for the best price, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, and we understand that it's difficult to be objective about 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 astute asking price to attract more potential 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
Make you aware of issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Decrease the possibility of unidentified problems that cause sales to backslide

People are surprised when they find out that their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated impression of the value of their home, 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 sitting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
