Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Elite Appraisal

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

If you're working with An agent to list your property, more than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays competing sales houses in your area. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. For anyone looking to get most profit out of their house, which includes not having it for sale too long, this is a natural move.

Even if you're working with the most accomplished real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value before signing the Listing Agreement.

That's where Elite Appraisal comes in! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their home is more than they estimated, so investing in an appraisal from Elite Appraisal actually allowed them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. There are also plenty of sellers who think their home is worth much more than it really is, 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. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Home improvements that add value

Elite Appraisal can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it... Should I finish my kitchen remodel... Practically any project will influence value in some way. But not everything will have the same return on investment. Remodeling your kitchen might improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.

Need help making some of these important decisions? We're here for you. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent on commission will. Our fees are based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price. When it comes to investing in your house and deciding on a fair price to sell at, a professional appraisal from Elite Appraisal will help you make the best decisions.
