Appraisal services for home sellers - Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc.

Getting an appraisal from Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc. before putting your Whitley County home on the market saves you time and money.

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

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you need to get for it. Rather, the appraisal measures your home's market value.

Selling on your own?

More and more IN homeowners are deciding 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, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. It can be very difficult to get objective opinions, and we understand that it can be very difficult to take an objective look at 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 realistic asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very useful bargaining tool once you have a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Call attention to any problems and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help decrease the possibility of unrevealed problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised to discover their home's value is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it rather than gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
