Purchasing a new or existing home- A home purchase is the largest, single investment most people will ever make. Whether it's a primary waterfront residence on Lake Norman, an new Uptown Charlotte condo, or an investment home somewhere in between, the purchase of real property is a complex financial transaction that requires multiple parties to pull it all off.

Most of the people involved are very familiar. The Realtor is the most common face of the transaction. In the greater Charlotte, North Carolina area The Charlotte Regional Reators Association provides professional home buying and selling expertise. http//www.carolinahome.com. The mortgage company provides the financial capital necessary to fund the transaction. The title company ensures that all aspects of the transaction are completed and that a clear title passes from the seller to the buyer.

So who makes sure the value of the property is in line with the amount being paid? This is where an appraisal comes in. An appraisal is an unbiased estimate of what a buyer might expect to pay - or a seller receives - for a parcel of real estate, where both buyer and seller are informed parties. To be an informed party, most people turn to a professional appraiser, familiar with the local real estate market and trends,to provide them with the most accurate estimate of the true value of their property.  Charlotte Valuations can meet your valuation needs, within your time frame.
