Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Ludlow Appraisal Company.

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in a professional 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 hard for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

For Sale By Owner?

An increasing amount of MA homeowners are making the decision 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 for top dollar, what you need is a expert appraiser. It can be very difficult to get 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 inform you of what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

In addition to helping you set a sensible selling price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

  • Give you an advantage while bargaining 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 get rid of any overlooked repairs hassles that might delay a closing
  • Help lower the chances of unknown problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

People are surprised when they find out that the value of their home is more than they originally believed. So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they expected they would get. Others have an an exaggerated assessment of the value of their home, 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 waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
