Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from A. M. Appraisals

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

A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their house is more than they estimated, so investing in a professional appraisal 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 home won't attract buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house sits on the market.

In today's adapting market, using a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a sharp listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your property? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected sale homes in your town. It's a good starting point when deciding your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize the home's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a crucial step.

But even if you've hired the most accomplished real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion prior to signing a Listing Agreement.

And that's where A. M. Appraisals comes in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

An efficient appraisal from A. M. Appraisals can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will entice buyers, and we'll also:

  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you have an interested buyer
  • Provide written proof of your home's quality inside and out to impress buyers
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make you aware of problems
  • Reduce chances of unknown issues that can cause sales to flop
  • Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements to add value

A. M. Appraisals can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your property. Ask yourself "Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that new bathroom?", "Do I need to complete my closet remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses have an effect on their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. A kitchen remodel may improve the appeal of a home, but it might not justify the expenses involved.
