Appraisal services for home sellers - Zane B. Harris Appraisal Co. Since 1968

Getting an appraisal from Zane B. Harris Appraisal Co. Since 1968 before putting your Bradley 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. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money 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 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, the appraisal measures how much your home will bring on the open market.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

Quite a few TN homeowners are choosing 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, with minimal waiting and for the best price, you need a skilled appraiser. You need objective opinions, it's very 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.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a realistic asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very valuable negotiating tool while speaking with a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
Alert you of issues and eliminate overlooked repairs hassles that might stall a closing
Help decrease the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

People are surprised to discover their home's value is higher than they first thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they originally thought. Alternatively, some people have an exaggerated opinion when they put a value on their home, and an appraisal gave then the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly instead of gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home rarely attracts buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
