Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Phillips Real Estate Services, LLC. will ensure you get it right.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp their local real estate market.

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 how much your home will bring on the open market.

Appraisals are valuable tools for families selling without an agent

An increasing amount of TN homeowners are deciding to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent.

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 realistic asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Give you an advantage while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
  • Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Lower the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

Folks are sometimes surprised to discover their home's value is more than they originally believed. So spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally expected. Others have an an overestimated impression of their home's value, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
