Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Elite 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.

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they thought, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's price value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes do not attract potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your home sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house is still sitting on the market.

In today's adapting market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a skillful listing price for your home.

If you're working with a real estate agent to sell your house, more than likely, they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes selected sales in your area. It's a customary starting point in determining 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 move.

But even if you have been working with the most experienced agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value before signing a Listing Agreement.

And that's where Elite Appraisal Services can help you! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

Provide tips to help you negotiate once you have found a prospective buyer
