When selling your house, appraisers take into account many factors when determining the worth of a home. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that while some of things, such as location, can’t be helped, there are things a homeowner can do to ensure that the home is appraised for maximum value. Information is very key to this process. Appraisers don’t spend a lot of time in the home. In fact, the interior inspection typically takes 30 minutes or less. Its a good idea to include a fact sheet about your home with the address, the year the home was built, the square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms and the size of the lot. Also, include a listing of recent sales in the area. The appraiser has access to recent home sales, but there’s always a chance he or she may miss something. After inspecting thousands of homes, it does become quite for the Appraiser to quickly assess the amenities in a home. That isn’t much time to make a good first impression, so line up any outstanding pluses of your house in advance of the appraiser’s visit.
