Selling your home in or near Jefferson County? Contact Sleadd Appraisals 502.291.5588 and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on putting your house on the market soon, an appraisal is a step in the right direction. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand real estate market forces.

We are not talking about how much you've spent buying and improving your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Instead, an appraisal provides a professional opinion on the true market value of your home. Something is only worth what another person is going to give you.

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

An increasing amount of Kentucky homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent.

It can be very difficult to get an objective opinion, we're human too, we understand its difficult difficult 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 sound asking price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very beneficial bargaining tool when you find a potential buyer
Put buyers at ease with written proof of the condition of your home inside and out
Alert you of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help lower the chances of hidden problems that cause sales to flop

It can be surprising to people when they find out the value of their home is quite a bit more than they thought. So investing in a professional appraisal allowed them to get thousands more than they could have originally netted. Alternatively, some people have an overestimated assessment of the value of their home, and by getting an appraisal it helped them to to set a more reasonable price for their home - allowing them to quickly sell it - rather than sitting on the market for months. An overpriced home will not attract buyers, reducing your offers, making closing more difficult, wasting valuable time, money, and efforts.
