Lake Norman Real Estate Pricing Your Home

Tips On How To Price Your Home

  • Consider comparables. What have other homes in your neighborhood sold for recently? How do they compare to yours in terms of size, upkeep, and amenities?
 
  • Consider competition. How many other houses are for sale in your area? Are you competing against new homes?
 
  • Consider your contingencies. Do you have special concerns that would affect the price you'll receive? For example, do you want to be able to move in four months?
 
  • Get an appraisal. For a few hundred dollars, a qualified appraiser can give you an estimate of your home's value. Be sure to ask for a market-value appraisal. To locate appraisers in your area, contact The Appraisal Institute (www.AppraisalInstitute.org) or ask a REALTORÒ for some recommendations.
 
  • Ask a lender. Since most buyers will need a mortgage, it's important that a home's sale price be in line with a lender's estimate of its value.
 
  • Be accurate. Studies show that homes priced higher than 3 percent over the correct price take longer to sell.
 
  • Know what you'll accept. It's critical to know what price you'll accept before beginning a negotiation with a buyer.

6 Forms You'll Need To Sell Your Home

  1. Property Disclosure Form. This form requires you to reveal all known defects to your property. Check with your state government to see if there is a special form required in your state.
 
  1. Purchasers Access to Premises Agreement. This agreement sets conditions for permitting the buyer to enter your home for activities such as measuring for draperies before you move.
 
  1. Sales Contract. The agreement between you and the seller on terms and conditions of sale. Again, check with your state real estate department to see if there is a required form.
 
  1. Sales Contract Contingency Clauses. In addition to the contract, you may need to add one or more attachments to the contract to address special contingencies'such as the buyer's need to sell a home before purchasing yours.
 
  1. Pre- and Post-Occupancy Agreements. Unless you're planning on moving out and the buyer moving in on the day of closing, you'll need an agreement on the terms and costs of occupancy once the sale closes.
 
  1. Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Pamphlet. If your home was built before 1978, you must provide the pamphlet to all sellers. You also must have buyers sign a statement indicating they received the pamphlet.
