Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Accupraise Real Estate Appraisal Group

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

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your home? Quite often they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes similar sales houses in your town. It's a good starting point in determining your home's listing price. This is a vital step if your main objectives are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

However, it's also advantageous to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before you sign a Listing Agreement, even if you are working with an experienced real estate agent.

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

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal 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. An overpriced house won't attract interested 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.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home -- and Accupraise Real Estate Appraisal Group can help with that. Would it be better to paint the whole house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Do I need to finish my closet remodel... Virtually any project can influence value in some way. But not everything will have an equal impact. Remodeling your kitchen may improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

Accupraise Real Estate Appraisal Group appraisers have no vested interest in the amount your home sells for, unlike an agent. An appraisal fee from Accupraise Real Estate Appraisal Group is based on our efforts to complete the report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. So a professional appraisal from Accupraise Real Estate Appraisal Group will help you make the sharpest decisions on investments to add value and deciding on a fair listing price.
