Getting an appraisal from Nordheim Appraisal Inc before putting your Machesney Park 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 the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to get a handle on their local real estate market.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Going to sell your home yourself?

Quite a few IL homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, with minimal waiting and for the best price, you need a professional appraisal. You need objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to take an objective look at own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you 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:

  • Be a very valuable bargaining tool while speaking with 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 decrease the possibility of hidden problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

It can be surprising to people to discover the value of their home is much more than they thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they originally expected. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high 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
