Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from A-Z Residential Appraisals.

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

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these people to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. Others have an inflated opinion of their home's estimated value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced house won't attract serious buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still sitting on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is still sitting on the market.

With today's evolving market conditions, you should definitely hire a licensed appraiser to get a proper listing price for your home.

Working with a real estate agent to sell your house? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes comparable houses for sale in your town. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. This is a crucial (and very common) step if your main objectives are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

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

That's where we come in! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so both 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-Z Residential Appraisals can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will appeal to potential buyers, and we can also:

Provide tips to help you negotiate once you have found an interested buyer
Provide written proof of your home's condition inside and out to impress potential buyers
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles
Decrease the chances of unknown disputes that cause the process to go up in smoke
Do away with waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Improvements to add value

A-Z Residential Appraisals can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home. You should ask yourself questions like "Would it be better to paint the whole house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that new bathroom?", "Should I finish my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can have an effect on their value. Unfortunately, not all of them have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen might improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out your expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

We'll step in and help make these decisions. A-Z Residential Appraisals appraisers have no vested interest in what amount your home sells for, unlike a real estate agent. Your fee to us is based on efforts to complete your report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
