Be an informed seller. Get an appraisal from Gateway Apprasials Ltd..

Selling your home? You would be wise to invest in an appraisal. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays you in the long run! Unless a homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to get a handle on their local real estate market.

You, as a homeowner, might be thinking about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. You see, the appraisal measures your home's market value. At the end of the day, your house is only worth the price another person is offering to give you.

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

An increasing amount of New York homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But to do it right, quickly and to get the most you can, what you need is a qualified appraiser. The best thing to have is an objective opinion, and we understand that it can be very difficult 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 can getting a professional appraisal help you set a sound selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Allow you to have the edge while negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Make you aware of issues and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might stall a closing
Decrease the odds of unrevealed problems that cause sales to fall through

People are surprised when they find out the value of their home is higher than they originally thought. So spending a little on an appraisal allowed them to get several thousand more than they could have originally banked. Alternatively, some people have an inflated opinion of the value of their home, and an appraisal 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 gathering dust on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting your valuable time and draining your resources while you're in Real Estate "limbo".

Get a professional value opinion before listing

You may have a very experienced agent, but it's in your best interest to get an analysis of value prior to finalizing a listing agreement. And that's where Gateway Apprasials Ltd. comes in. We can furnish you with a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your home's characteristics and a detailed breakdown of the most recent and similar comparable sales which we typically refer to as "comps" in the appraisal industry.
