Getting an appraisal from The Cary Group before putting your Brentwood home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand local real estate values.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Rather, a appraisal provides a professional opinion on your home's market value.

Appraisals are valuable tools for families selling without an agent

An increasing amount of 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, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. The best thing to have is objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

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

  • Allow you to have the edge while bargaining once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
  • Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
  • Lower the possibility of unknown problems that cause sales to deteriorate

People are surprised when they find out their home's value is higher than they originally thought. So investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive several thousand more than they expected they would get. Others have an an exaggerated assessment of their home's value, and an appraisal helped them to to set a more reasonable price their home in order for it to sell quickly rather than waiting 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

We also help agents price homes in Williamson County

You may have an extremely experienced agent but it's definitely a good idea to get an objective third-party's opinion of value prior to finalizing a listing agreement. And that's where The Cary Group comes in. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate summarizing of your home's characteristics and a detailed breakdown of the latest and similar comparable sales or as they're commonly called, "comps".
