The appraisal came in low. Now what?

If you’re buying or selling in Northwest Indiana, you have four real options: renegotiate, split the gap, add cash, or challenge the appraisal with stronger comps. The first thing to do is read your contract’s appraisal and financing contingency deadlines, since that decides how much time you have.

We wrote up the full guide, including who can back out, who pays for the appraisal, and whether to waive the contingency: https://freedomgroupglobal.com/post/low-appraisal-northwest-indiana-options

Text or call 630-912-9129 with the address and the appraised number. We’ll tell you whether to negotiate, challenge, or walk.

Thinking about selling and wondering why buyers are hesitating?

With the average 30-year rate at 7.32% as of October 22, a lot of buyers are running out of room in their monthly budget. Here's something sellers can do about it: instead of only cutting the price, you can help with the rate.

In one example on a $550,000 home, $8,800 toward a rate buydown saved the buyer about $148 a month. The same $8,800 as a price cut saved about $48.

Ever driven past a few acres outside Crown Point and thought, "I could keep horses out there"? 🐴

Maybe you could. Here's what surprises a lot of buyers: a "Crown Point" address can be inside city limits or in unincorporated Lake County, and each has its own zoning rules.

And a barn already on the property doesn't automatically mean you can board horses, host events, or split off a lot. Each of those is its own question for the planning office.

Did your home come off the market without selling? You're not alone, and it's almost never a mystery. 🏡

In our experience, an expired listing nearly always comes down to one of three things: the price, the home's condition, or how it was marketed. The good news is that all three are fixable.

The biggest mistake we see is relisting the exact same way with a new date. Buyers notice, and the result usually doesn't change.

Got an accepted offer on your home, and then the inspection report showed up?

Take a breath. In Illinois, the buyer asking for repairs or a credit is a normal second round of negotiation, not a sign the sale is over. Your attorneys handle it during the attorney review window, and you usually have four options: agree, counter with a smaller credit, offer specific repairs, or decline the minor stuff.

One tip we share with Will County and Cook County neighbors: a credit at closing is often cleaner than fixing things before the sale.

Your appraisal came in LOW. Don't panic. 👇

If you're buying or selling in Northwest Indiana, here are your four options:

✅ Renegotiate the price ✅ Split the gap with the other side ✅ Buyer brings extra cash (only if it still makes sense) ✅ Challenge the appraisal with better comps

Then check your contract's appraisal and financing contingency deadlines, and confirm them with your title company. That one step protects your earnest money.

Two offers just came in on your house. One is higher. Which one do you take?

Not so fast. Here's what we check before we recommend an offer to a seller in Chicago's southwest suburbs:

Net proceeds after credits, not just the headline price
Financing strength and earnest money
Appraisal risk if the price is well above comps
How many contingencies are attached
Closing date and possession

In Illinois, the attorney review period gives you room to counter more than one buyer and keep a backup offer in your pocket. We break down how it works, with a side-by-side example, in our newest article - find it in the first comment.

Thinking about selling, or already fielding offers? Text or call us at 630-912-9129 and we'll run the comparison for your address.

Plainfield sellers: got a cash offer? 💵 Read this before you sign.

Cash offers are exciting. No lender, no bank appraisal, no loan falling through at the last minute.

Here's what a lot of sellers don't realize: "cash" doesn't mean "as-is." A cash buyer can still ask for an inspection, request repairs, and include other contingencies. We've seen sellers accept a cash offer and get a $15,000 repair request a week later.

Before you say yes, check:
✔ Proof of funds (and make sure it's current)
✔ How much earnest money, and when it's due
✔ The inspection window and repair terms
✔ Your closing and possession dates
✔ Whether the buyer can assign the contract to someone else

In Plainfield, homes are selling at a $395,000 median in a median of 49 days. If you're on a deadline, the certainty of cash can be worth a lot. If you have time, a traditional listing may net you more.

We work with four cash-offer partners and take zero referral fees from any of them, so we can show you both options side by side with no strings attached.

Portage homeowners: is it time to downsize? 🏡

It's one of the biggest questions we hear, and the answer is almost never just about square footage.

A smaller home can mean less maintenance and more freed-up equity. It can also come with HOA dues, a higher price per square foot, or a different tax bill. So the real question is: will your next home actually cost less each month?

Here's where Portage stands right now:
📍 Median sale price: $290,000
📅 Median days on market: 41
🏡 126 homes sold in the past 90 days

Buyers are active, which gives you a good window to plan a move on your terms.

A few things to think through before you decide:
✔ Ranch, condo, or townhome? Each solves different problems.
✔ Will the next home still work for you 15 years from now?
✔ Sell first or buy first? Both can work, depending on your finances.
✔ What furniture will actually fit?

📖 We put it all together in a new guide for Portage homeowners. Link in the first comment 👇

Thinking about selling in Crest Hill? Read this before you pick a price. 👇

"Let's list a little high so we have room to negotiate."

It sounds smart. In reality, buyers don't negotiate with an overpriced home. They skip it and tour the one that looks like a better value.

Here's what we've seen with our own sellers:
✅ Listed at our recommended price: sold at 103.7% of list in 13 days
⚠️ Listed higher: sold at 101.6% of list in 28 days

In Crest Hill, the median sale price is $300,000 and homes are spending a median of 48 days on market. With Joliet and Romeoville homes priced just a few thousand dollars away, buyers have options, and they compare.

Home not getting offers? Before cutting the price, check:
1️⃣ Are buyers booking showings?
2️⃣ What is their feedback saying?
3️⃣ How are your online views and saves?
4️⃣ Are similar homes nearby going under contract?

The answer tells you whether it's the price, the photos, the condition, or the marketing.

Curious what your home would sell for today? Comment "PRICE" or call us at 630-912-9129 for a no-obligation market analysis.
