Listing at the right price is crucial and a professional appraisal from Scheller and Associates, Inc. will ensure you get it right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is a step in the right direction. Don't think of an appraisal as purely an expense; it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to understand real estate market forces.

You're probably, as a homeowner, focused on the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or how much you want to sell it for. Rather, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market. After all, a home is only worth what another person is going to pay.

Selling yourself instead of using a real estate agent and need help with pricing?

Quite a few Indiana homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, you need a skilled appraiser. You need an objective opinion, and we understand that it can be very hard to take an objective look at 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.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a sensible selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:
  • Be a very valuable bargaining tool while speaking with a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing
  • Lower the odds of unknown problems that cause sales to flop
It can be surprising to people when they find out that their home's value is more than they originally believed. So taking the first step and investing in an appraisal allowed them to receive thousands more than they originally expected. Others have an an exaggerated impression when they put a value on their home, and by getting an appraisal it gave them the assistance they needed in order to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - instead of waiting on the market for months. An overpriced home causes buyers to back off, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while your home sits on the market.
