Pre-Listing Appraisals
Have confidence in your listing price with a pre-listing appraisal from Appraisal Source, Inc..
Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they thought, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed these people to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an inflated opinion of their home’s estimated value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes do not attract potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Each month that your home is still sitting on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And in the meantime, you’re stuck paying the mortgage while your home sits on the market.
In today's fluctuating market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a sharp listing price for your home.
Working with an agent to list your house? Then they’ll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that includes selected sales in your local area. It’s a customary starting point in deciding your home’s listing price. This step is crucial if you’re going to maximize your profit and minimize the house’s time on the market.
However, it’s definitely in your best interest to have a third-party’s objective opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you’ve hired an experienced real estate agent.
