Customers say: Quick response

"Tracy Simpson was very professional throughout the process and the appraisal was thorough and completed in a timely manner. I used the appraisal along with comps from my realtor to confirm my asking price. Although the market is crazy right now, her assessment helped me determine the optimal price to maximize exposure. I had 32 showings and 7 offers within the first 3 days."

"Larry Tollen recently helped my family to sell our place in Carrboro. With his breath of knowledge and skillset, we were able to get multiple offers to sell the property above our asking price. Larry was also our buyer's agent of the same property more than 10 years ago. We have to say from both experiences that he's a truly amazing buyer's agent and seller's agent. Larry knows the ins and outs of the real estate market in the triangle area and NC. He works relentlessly for his clients and is always so responsive and honest that we will take his advice without any second guessing. In addition, Larry always keeps us in loop with every single step in the buying and selling process. He has done a great job with our negotiation. Based on the experience above, we truly think Larry is a first-rate real estate agent whom we would recommend without any reservations."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.
