Getting an appraisal from Holt Appraisal Group before putting your Kingsport home on the market saves you time and money.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

You're probably focused on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. You see, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market. Once you break it all down, at the end of the day, your house is only worth the price another person is going to pay.

Going to sell your home yourself?

More and more Tennessee 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 to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to take an objective look at 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.

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

Give you an advantage while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help prevent the possibility of unidentified problems that cause sales to backslide

It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is a great deal more than they thought. So taking the first step and investing in an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they thought they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home in order for it to sell quickly - instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
