Appraisal services for home sellers - Ryan Bull Appraisals

Getting an appraisal from Ryan Bull Appraisals before putting your Bennington County home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're going to sell your home, you should seriously consider a professional appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, the appraisal measures the true market value of your home.

Appraisals are valuable tools for families selling without an agent

An increasing amount of VT homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will explain to you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a sensible asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very beneficial negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home's interior and exterior
Alert you of issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
Help lower the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is quite a bit more than they thought. So spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they could have gotten originally. Others have an an overestimated impression of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
