Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact CC Real Estate Services

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

Working with a real estate agent to sell your house? Then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays similar sale homes in your area. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is crucial if you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your house's time on the market.

In our opinion, however, you might also wish to consider a pre-listing appraisal from a professional who tracks real estate values for living - PRIOR to putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced agent.

That's where we come in! We'll 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 home's features.

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their house is more than they estimated, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. There are also plenty of sellers who think their home is worth a lot more than it really is, and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced house won't 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.

Improvements to add value to your home

CC Real Estate Services can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your property. Would it be better to paint the whole house before we sell it... Should I complete my closet remodel... Nearly any project has the potential to influence value in some way. But, not all of them have an effect commensurate with their cost. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out your costs before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.

CC Real Estate Services can help you with these important decisions. An appraiser has no vested interest in what amount the house sells for, unlike a real estate agent. An appraisal fee from CC Real Estate Services is based on our efforts to finalize your report, and are not a percentage of your home's sale price. So a professional appraisal from CC Real Estate Services will help homeowners like you make the wisest decisions when it comes to investments to add value and deciding on a smart sales price.
