Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from 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 actually allowed them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract serious potential 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 you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property sits on the market.

Hiring a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a just listing price for your home in today's ever-changing market.

If you're working with an agent to sell your property, more than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays competing sales in your town. It's a good starting point in 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 real estate agent, it's in your best interest to also have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement.

That's where All City Appraisal comes in! We can 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 house's features.

An expert appraisal from All City Appraisal can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will intrigue 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 wow potential buyers
  • Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems that might delay a closing
  • Cut down the chances of unknown complications that can cause sales to crumble
  • Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the sale will go through.

Improvements that add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be more important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your house. You should ask yourself questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Should I finish my closet remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect their value. Unfortunately, not all of them have an equal affect. A kitchen remodel might improve the appeal of a home, but it may not justify the costs you'd pay.

We'll step in and help you make these important decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent do. Your fee to us is based on efforts to finalize the report, and not a percentage of your home's sale price. An appraisal fee from All City Appraisal is based on our efforts to complete the report, and are not a percentage of your home's sale price. Our fees are not a percentage of your home's sale price — your fee to us is based on efforts to finalize your report. A professional appraisal from All City Appraisal helps homeowners like you make the sharpest decisions on investing in their houses and deciding on a fair sales price.
