What's My Home Worth In Asheville NC?

828 210 1648 www.PattonPropertyGroup.com
Time to give up on old-fashioned real estate to sell your home.

Thinking of selling your home in the Asheville NC area? Patton Property Group sold 60+ homes last year, and we are at 30 pending or closed homes for January and February in 2012! MAKE YOUR HOME ONE OF THESE IN 2012.



Why not make your property more appealing to a buyer’s appetite by garnishing it with a Certification?

Appraised
Buyers are continuing to test the market, we want to invite them to come out and play the game with us. In a time when buyers are nervous, because they see the distressed properties out there and are afraid that they may end up in the same situation, we would like to offer properties that will create a sense of security and have built in value. By listing properties with a current appraisal on file we send the message to buyers that we understand the competitive market and we really want to sell these homes. Call me to find out more about why an appraisal supports your sale in the transaction process and why buyer agents are attracted to certified homes and are more likely to show them.

Time to step away from old-fashioned real estate, creativity and innovation will get your home sold.

Pre-inspected
Talk about built-in value - with limited cash flow available to buyers, and buyers spending most of their savings to afford mortgage down payments and closing costs, there is not always a lot of money left on the table to allow for repairs. Remember, buyers tend to be nervous in this market, and with the change in our contract in 2011 adding the due diligence period, they can “walk” from the contract within that period. Call us at 828 419 9115 for more information. Repairs are always a negotiation issue. You have negotiated on the price of your home, without you or the buyer knowing what repairs are necessary.  The inspection will point out safety issues and recommended repairs. You want to know NOW, so that you can repair the little things and choose what to repair on the larger items or disclose them. Get it honest and open, and you create up-front trust with your buyers. Don’t take the chance that they will walk when under contract, or negotiate hard with you for a repair credit, at a time when you don’t have time to shop around for repairs.

Home-warranty
Many buyers ask for a home warranty. If you book it at the beginning of the listing, it is charged at closing, and you get free seller’s coverage throughout the life of the listing. This gives us a “marketing lift” where buyers feel a sense of security as you are offering a warranty. Given that you may be asked for one anyway when the offer comes in, this is a way to make use of it throughout the marketing period.

Call our listing team at 828 210 1648

Lake Lure is about 20 minutes South of the restaurant town of Black Mountain, and 40 minutes from Asheville NC and Hendersonville NC. The Town of Lake Lure is a beautiful place to visit and a wonderful place to live; it is the home of over 1,050 permanent residents.

Lake Lure sits in the heart of Hickory Nut Gorge, east of Asheville. The Rocky Broad River flows through a series of rapids down through Hickory Nut Gorge, and the crystal clear water flows through the valley that feeds Lake Lure.

The Town of Lake Lure encompasses 13.25 square miles including the lake with a large central body of deep water, three long bays, an island of seven acres and many small bays and inlets with a background of forest clad hills and mountains. The climate is unusually temperate as Lake Lure lies in the “thermal belt” of the western North Carolina mountains and foothills.


National Geographic has called Lake Lure one of the most beautiful man-made lakes in the world. Visitors come to enjoy the 720 acres of lake, sparkling clean beach area, and the incredible Blue Ridge mountain range including Chimney Rock.

The Town of Lake Lure is a great location for sports including swimming, golfing, hiking or serious rock climbing. You can enjoy a wide variety of water activities, ranging from canoeing and fishing to pleasure boating and water skiing. Both motor and non-motorized boats enjoy the lake; however, a lake permit is required to place a private boat on the lake.

Good morning Holly - let's chat about why we think an appraisal is so important. Let's look at a regular listing process. Buyers expect padding or an over inflation of the price so the buyer can low ball and feel like they are getting a deal. Many sellers give their agents a price to list the home at - or agents do a CMA. Many home buyers in our area are from somewhere else - they are sitting in New York, Florida, Texas and around the country looking at homes on the internet. Many are nervous - what is going to happen in the economy, are prices here stable? Would we all agree that buyers right now are asking about foreclosures, shortsales and bank owned properties Katharina? We need to compete with these categories. We can do this by listing "priced below appraisal" - even if it is a smidgen below - on the MLS. What's more, when we get a contract on your home, the buyer agent can see the appraisal attached to the MLS and use it with their buyer. It would give people a laugh if I put priced below realtor CMA on there
