Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from The Fourman Group will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's hard for them to fully grasp their local real estate market.

We are not talking about how much you have invested in your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more OH and Northern KY homeowners are choosing 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 to get the most you can, you need an expert appraiser. The best thing to have is objective opinions, it can be very 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.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a astute asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining when you find 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 overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Help prevent the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to backslide

Folks are sometimes surprised when they find out the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they expected they would get. Others have an inflated impression of their home's value, by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done

Even if you're working with an extremely talented agent, it's in your best interest to get an unbiased second opinion of value prior to signing a listing agreement. And that's where The Fourman Group comes in. An appraisal can be invaluable in a scenario like this. You and the agent will get a complete breakdown for the unique features of your property and give you insight into the health of the local real estate market with a record of recent comparable properties in the area.
