Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Springs Appraisals

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 a real estate agent to list your house? More than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays comparable sales in your area. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your house's time on the market, this is a vital step.

Even if you're working with an accomplished 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 we come in! We'll perform 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".


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

So many people are blown away 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 them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. 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. An overpriced property won't attract interested buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. And you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are so 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... Would it help to put in that third bathroom... Do I need to complete my closet remodel... Practically any project has the potential to influence value in some way. But not everything will have the same bang for the buck. Remodeling your kitchen might improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.

Springs Appraisals can help you with these decisions. Unlike a real estate agent, an appraiser has no vested interest in what amount the house sells for. An appraisal fee from Springs Appraisals is based on our efforts to finalize the report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. When it comes to investing in your house and settling on a fair sale price, a professional appraisal from Springs Appraisals helps homeowners make the smartest decisions.
