Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Company Name 2

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price.

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. There are also plenty of sellers who think their home is worth a lot more than it really is, and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract serious buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your home sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house is still sitting on the market.

Hiring a licensed appraiser is the perfect way to get a solid listing price for your home in today's adapting market.

If you're working with a real estate agent to list your house, more than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays selected homes for sale in your town. It's a customary starting point when deciding your home's listing price. This is a really important (and very common) step if your intentions are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

But even if you've been working with the most expert real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value before signing the Listing Agreement.

That's where we come in! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

A knowledgeable appraisal from Company Name 2 can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in potential buyers, and we'll also:

Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you have an interested buyer
Wow potential buyers with written proof of your home's state inside and out
Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems
Decrease the chances of unknown messes that cause the process to fall through
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Improvements to add value

There are other important questions you should ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", before listing your house. Questions like "Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Should I finish my closet remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. Remodeling your kitchen might improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out the expenses involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.
