Have Confidence in Your Listing Price with an Appraisal from Evans Appraisal Services.

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

In our opinion, though, you might also wish to consider an appraisal from a licensed professional who tracks real estate values for living - PRIOR to listing your house - even if you're working with an experienced real estate agent.

And that's where Evans Appraisal Services comes in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable 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 correct listing price for your home. Contact us today.

Evans Appraisal Services can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will entice potential buyers, and we can also:
  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you find a an interested buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your house's quality inside and out
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles
  • Reduce chances of unexpected difficulties that can cause your sale to fall through
  • Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the deal will close
A lot of sellers are shocked 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 receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's amount of value to decide on a realistic price for 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. Every month your house stays on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are so many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your house. Should we paint the whole house before we sell it... Do I need to complete my closet remodel... Virtually any project can influence value in some way. But not everything will have the same return on investment. While a kitchen remodel may improve your home's appeal, it might not add nearly enough to the value to justify your expenses.

Need help making some of these important decisions? We're here for you. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent on commission will. Our fees are based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price. A professional appraisal from Evans Appraisal Services helps you make the sharpest decisions when it comes to investments to add value and settling on a smart sales price.
