One last thing that’s covered in section two of the book is the benefit of obtaining a presale appraisal. At a cost of a few hundred dollars a seller can get a clear idea of what their home is actually worth based on the market and the features of the home itself. This is a great approach to consider as it eliminates all the guesswork that might otherwise go into determining a home’s listing price. By pricing a home correctly in the first place there’s greater potential to maximize the profit from the sale.
Perhaps the main thing to take away from section two of this book is that pricing a home requires a little bit of homework by both the real estate agent and the seller. It’s an important point and after reading this section you’ll understand why.
