Putting a house on the market in or near Strafford County? Contact Louise H Tower and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is absolutely necessary. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to get a handle on real estate market forces.

This isn't a discussion of the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Instead, an appraisal assesses your home's market value.

Going to sell your home yourself?

An increasing amount of NH homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a expert appraiser. You need objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult to take an objective look at 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.

Not only can getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Be a very helpful negotiating tool when you find a potential buyer
  • Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Decrease the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised to discover their home's value is a great deal more than they thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they expected they would get. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated assessment of the value of their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of gathering dust on the market for months. Selling too high rarely attracts buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done

Get a professional value opinion before listing

Even if you're working with the most experienced agent, it's in your best interest to get an objective third-party's opinion of value prior to signing a listing agreement. And that's where Louise H Tower comes in. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal that will let you and your agent have an accurate writeup of your home's characteristics and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or as they're commonly called, "comps".
