Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from mymobileappraiser

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 home is much more than they thought, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed these people to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. 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 home will not attract interested 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 on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house sits on the market.

Using a licensed appraiser is the #1 way to get a skillful listing price for your home in today's adapting market.

If you're working with an agent to sell your property, more than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected houses for sale in your area. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is crucial if you're going to minimize the home's time on the market and maximize your profit.

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

And that's where mymobileappraiser can help you! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent have an accurate description of your house's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

A skillful appraisal from mymobileappraiser can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in potential buyers, and we'll also:

Be an extremely valuable negotiating tool once you find a potential buyer
Blow away potential buyers with written proof of your house's state inside and out
Make you aware of problems and eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour
Reduce chances of unexpected disputes that can cause your sale to flop
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the deal will close.

Improvements that add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be more important questions to ask yourself before listing your house. Questions like "Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my kitchen remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

We'll help you make some of these important decisions. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent do. Our appraisal fees are based on efforts to complete your report, and not a percentage of your home's sale price.
