Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact M Davies Appraisal LLC

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price.

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 an appraisal from M Davies Appraisal LLC actually allowed these people to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes do not attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is still sitting on the market.

With today's fluctuating market conditions, you should definitely hire a licensed appraiser to get an expert listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your house? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that includes comparable sale homes in your local area. It's a customary starting point when deciding 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.

In our opinion, though, you should also get an appraisal from a licensed professional who's sole occupation is to analyze real estate - BEFORE putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced real estate agent.

That's where we come in! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so both 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.

M Davies Appraisal LLC can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in potential buyers, and we can also:

Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you have found a potential buyer
Impress potential buyers with written proof of your home's shape inside and out
Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems
Cut down the chances of unknown quandaries that can cause sales to crumble
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements that add value to your home

There are other important questions to ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", before listing your property. You should ask yourself questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Should I finish my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can have an effect on their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. A kitchen remodel may improve the appeal of a home, but it may not justify the expenses involved.

Your fee to us is based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
