Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Needham & Associates, Inc..

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, the appraisal measures your home's market value.

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more NC 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 expert appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, it's very hard to take an objective look at 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 selling 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 problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help prevent the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised when they find out that the value of their home is higher than they first thought. So by taking the first step and investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they thought they would get. Others have an an overestimated impression of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
