Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Sun Point Appraisals, Inc.

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 more than they estimated, so investing in an appraisal from Sun Point Appraisals, Inc. 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 over-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 house will not 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. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home is still sitting on the market.

With today's ever-changing market conditions, you should definitely use a licensed appraiser to get an exact listing price for your home.

Are you working with an agent to list your house? Quite often they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that displays selected homes for sale in your area. It's a good starting point in determining your home's listing price. This step is crucial if you're going to minimize your house's time on the market and maximize your profit.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before signing a Listing Agreement, even if you're working with an experienced agent.

And that's where Sun Point Appraisals, Inc. can help you! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

Home improvements that add value
