Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from 1st Choice Appraisal Group.

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Are you working with an agent to sell your property? Quite often they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes comparable homes for sale in your local area. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize the home's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a vital step.

In our opinion, though, you might also wish to consider an appraisal from someone who tracks real estate values for living - PRIOR to listing your house - even if you're working with an experienced real estate agent.

And that's where 1st Choice Appraisal Group can help you! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

With today's adapting market conditions, you should definitely considering hiring a licensed appraiser to get a solid listing price for your home. Contact us today.

1st Choice Appraisal Group can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will entice buyers, and we can also:
  • Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you have found a potential buyer
  • Blow away buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make yourself aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles
  • Reduce chances of unexpected problems that can cause sales to fizzle
  • Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the sale will go through.
A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these sellers to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's estimated value to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract serious potential 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 its mortgage.

Home improvements that add value

There are other important questions to ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", prior to listing your property. Questions like "Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that new bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my closet remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses have an effect on their value. But, not all of them have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen might improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the expenses involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.
