Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Appraisals Plus

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

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they thought, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these sellers to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your house stays 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 ever-changing market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the perfect way to get an accurate listing price for your home.

Are you working with an agent to sell your property? More than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that includes a list of houses for sale in your area. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is vital if you're going to minimize your home's time on the market and maximize your profit.

Even if you've hired the most experienced agent, it's definitely in your best interest to also have a third-party's objective opinion before signing the Listing Agreement.

That's where Appraisals Plus comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your home's features.

  • Reduce chances of unexpected headaches that can cause your sale to flop

Improvements to add value to your home

Appraisals Plus can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home. Ask yourself "Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. Remodeling your kitchen might improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out expenses before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.
