The importance of an accurate property appraisal
When it comes to selling your property, setting the sale price is one of the most important parts of the process. The right price helps attract potential buyers, ensures your property does not sit languishing on the market, and also allows you to achieve your financial aims.
So, what goes into this valuation and what should you consider?
Here’s how Andrew Johnson and the imsold team ensure to achieve an accurate property appraisal that treads the perfect line between the maximum value and meeting the market.
Beware the high price promise
If you’re interviewing a couple of agents to sell your home, it can be tempting to be dazzled by the one who promises the highest price. But there are a couple of things to consider here.
Any property sale is always driven by market demand, and should yours be priced too high it can deter potential buyers.
That means you may be ruling out the very people who are most likely to buy your home and you might later be forced to drop the sale price.
At this stage, your property might have been on the market for a while, and the reality is, that once a property is on the market for too long, people start to wonder why.
That’s why it’s essential to get that sale price right from the outset. You need to tread the fine line between maximum financial reward and the price the market is willing to pay at that time.
At imsold, we have an outstanding appraisal record where we consistently meet the aims of sellers while also attracting high-caliber buyers to ensure the ultimate outcome is achieved and your property gets sold.
Here’s how we do it…
Local market knowledge
Detailed market knowledge is key to an accurate appraisal. That means we go above and beyond to know what has recently sold in the Noosa region, for what price, how long it took to sell it, and how it compares to your property.
This is the type of insight that is gained over years as a local property market expert, and it is the knowledge that is consistently updated by keeping our finger on the pulse.
Property and market trends
In addition to maintaining insight into the local market, we also keep a watchful gaze on overarching trends such as the loan market, interest rates, real estate incentives, employment statistics, population growth, and more.
That tells us exactly what type of buyers are likely to be in the property market now and into the future, and what they are looking for.
A database
One of an agent’s prime assets is its database. This comprises potential buyers at all stages of the purchasing process and gives us a unique perspective on what people are looking for and what they’re willing to pay.
By maintaining a database, we can better match your property with a buyer in addition to understanding the value of your property.
Honesty and transparency
At imsold, we firmly believe in long-term relations where our role is a trusted property advisor. This means we are here to help you achieve the aim of selling your property to meet your financial goals.
We also appreciate real relationships are built on honesty and trust, so you can rest assured our opinion will be based on the reality of the market rather than an inflated price.
We will also assist with advice to prepare your property for sale, and tirelessly work on your behalf throughout the selling process.
