Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Greenaway Certified Appraisals.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to get a handle on real estate market forces.

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

Going to sell your home yourself?

Quite a few PA homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance 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 skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult 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.

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

  • Be a very useful bargaining tool while speaking with 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 hold-up a closing
  • Lower the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to flop

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out that the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an inflated impression of the value of their home, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of waiting 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
