Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from A. M. Appraisals.

Working with a real estate agent to list your property? More than likely, they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays comparable houses for sale in your town. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your house's time on the market, this is a crucial step.

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

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

• Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you have found an interested buyer
