Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc.

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. If you're working with a real estate agent to list your property, more than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (CMA) that displays selected sales in your local area. It's a good starting point in deciding your home's listing price. For anyone looking to get most profit out of their house, which includes not having it for sale too long, this is a natural process.

However, it's also advantageous to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before signing a Listing Agreement, even if you've been working with an experienced real estate agent.

And that's where North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc. comes in! We'll perform 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.

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

An expert appraisal from North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc. can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will appeal to buyers, and we'll also:
  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you have a an interested buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make yourself aware of problems that might delay a closing
  • Cut down the chances of unexpected quandaries that can cause your sale to fall through
  • Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the deal will close
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 actually allowed these people to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's price value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes will not attract potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is still sitting on the market.

Home improvements that add value

There are many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home -- and North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc. can help with that. Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it... Should I put in that third bathroom... Should I complete my closet remodel... Nearly any project can influence value in some way. Unfortunately, not all of them have an effect commensurate with their cost. Remodeling your kitchen might improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the expenses involved before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

An appraisal fee from North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc. is based on our efforts to complete the report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from North Metro Appraisal Service, Inc.. When it comes to investing in your house and deciding on a fair sale price, we'll help homeowners like you make the best decisions.
