Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Elite Real Estate Appraisals, LLC

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 home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in an appraisal from Elite Real Estate Appraisals, LLC actually allowed them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your home sits on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. All the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Hiring a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a sharp listing price for your home in today's fluctuating market.

Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your property? Then you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected homes for sale in your area. It's a good starting point in deciding 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 process.

But even if you have been working with an expert agent , it's in your best interest to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before signing a Listing Agreement.

That's where Elite Real Estate Appraisals, LLC comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

In addition to helping you decide on a realistic price to sell so your home will draw in potential buyers. A qualified appraisal from Elite Real Estate Appraisals, LLC can:

Be a valuable negotiating tool once you find a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of your house's state inside and out
Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems
Reduce chances of unknown issues that can cause your sale to fizzle
Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Improvements to add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be equally important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your house. Questions like "Should we paint the whole house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Should I finish my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But not everything will have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.
