Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Greater Hudson Valley R/E Appraisals Inc. will ensure you get it right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to understand the nuances of local real estate values.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

Selling on your own?

More and more NY 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, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, and we understand that it's hard to take an objective look at 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.

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

Be a very helpful negotiating tool while speaking with a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease 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
Help decrease the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

People are surprised to discover the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an inflated assessment when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than waiting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
