Getting an appraisal from Simpson Real Estate Appraisals, LLC before putting your home on the market saves you time and money.

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 a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

While important, an appraisal is not about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Appraisals are valuable tools for people selling without an agent

Quite a few NC homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and for top dollar, you need a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, it can be very hard 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 asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very useful negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
  • Help prevent the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to deteriorate

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover their home's value is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they originally expected. Others have an an overestimated assessment when they put a value on 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 instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home 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

We also help agents price homes.
