Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact All City Appraisal

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

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed them 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 price value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes do not attract serious 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 the mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property sits on the market.

With today's changing market conditions, you should definitely use a licensed appraiser to get a just listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your house? More than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected homes for sale in your town. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is really important if you're going to minimize the home's time on the market and maximize your profit.

However, it's also advantageous to have a third-party's objective opinion prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you've hired the most experienced agent.

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

A professional appraisal from All City Appraisal can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers, and we'll also:

  • Be a valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer
  • Provide written proof of your house's state inside and out to blow away buyers
  • Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems that might delay your closing
  • Reduce chances of unexpected obstacles that can cause your sale to crumble
  • Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal can be underwritten.

Improvements to add value to your home

All City Appraisal can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your house. Questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Should I complete my closet remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses can 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.

All City Appraisal can help you with these important decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent do. Our appraisal fees are based on efforts to complete the report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
