Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Dennis 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 an agent to sell your house? Quite often you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays comparable homes for sale in your town. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is vital if you're going to maximize your profit and minimize the home's time on the market.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you're working with the most experienced real estate agent.

And that's where Dennis Appraisals comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your home's features.


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

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their home is a lot more than they'd planned, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's price value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract serious potential buyers, which means you waste time and 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.

Improvements to add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be other important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home. Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Do I need to complete my closet remodel... Virtually any project can influence value in some way. But, not all of them have an effect commensurate with their cost. Remodeling your kitchen may improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

Dennis Appraisals can help you with these decisions. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent on commission will. An appraisal fee from Dennis Appraisals is based on our efforts to complete the report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. A professional appraisal from Dennis Appraisals will help homeowners like you make the decisions on investments to add value and setting a fair price at which to sell.
