Appraisal services for home sellers - Green Creek Appraisals

Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Green Creek Appraisals.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional appraisal. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it pays you 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 fully grasp real estate market forces.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Instead, the appraisal measures your home's market value.

Appraisals are valuable tools for homeowners selling without an agent

More and more SC 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, with minimal waiting and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. You need objective opinions, and we understand that it can be very hard to be objective about your 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.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very helpful negotiating tool 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 delay a closing
Help prevent the chances of unidentified problems that cause sales to fall through

It can be surprising to people when they find out the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. 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. Others have an an inflated assessment of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
