PRE-LISTING APPRAISALS... Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from AmeriPRIDE Appraisal Corp.

Are you working with an agent to list your house? Then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays a list of sales. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize the home's time on the market, this is a really important step. Even if you're working with the most experienced real estate agent, it's in your best interest to also have a third-party's objective opinion prior to signing a Listing Agreement. That's where AmeriPRIDE Appraisal comes in! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have the detailed analysis you need.

	In today's fluctuating market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the best way to get an accurate listing price for your home in its current local market. Contact us today.

In addition to helping you derive a realistic listing price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal can also:

• Make you aware of those repair issues that matter most in an appraisal. This helps eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour that might delay your closing
• Do away with waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal can be underwritten
• Give you an advantage in negotiating while speaking with a potential buyer

Many sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their home is higher than they had thought, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these people to get more than what they thought they'd get for their home. There are also plenty of home sellers who think their home is worth much more than it really is, and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell within a reasonable period of time. An overpriced house will not attract potential buyers, which means you throw away time and (not to mention) money and still have no offers. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage, taxes, insurance, HOA fees, etc.

Upgrades that improve your home's value:

In addition to "how much?", there may be other important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property.
- Should we paint the whole house before we sell it?
- Does the fence need replacing?
- Do I need to finish my closet remodel?

Almost any project can affect value in some way. But not everything will have an equal effect. Remodeling your kitchen might improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out expenses before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.

Need help making some of these important decisions? We're here for you. A professional appraisal from AmeriPRIDE Appraisal helps you make the sharpest decisions when it comes to repairs and improvements to add value and deciding on a profit-maximizing listing & sale price.
