Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from ADZ Appraisal.

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

A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal from us 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 much more than it really is, 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 no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Each month that your home is still sitting on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house is sitting still on the market.

In today's ever-changing market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the top way to get a just listing price for your home.

If you're working with a real estate agent to list your home, more than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes similar homes for sale in your town. It's a good starting point when deciding 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.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before you sign the Listing Agreement, even if you have been working with the most experienced real estate agent.

And that's where ADZ Appraisal comes in! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

An expert appraisal from ADZ Appraisal can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will attract potential buyers, and we'll also:

Help provide advice when negotiating once you have an interested buyer
Blow away buyers with written proof of your home's quality inside and out
Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour and make you aware of problems
Reduce chances of unexpected disputes that can cause your sale to go up in smoke
Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Improvements to add value

ADZ Appraisal can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Ask yourself "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my closet remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses can affect their value. But, not all of them have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

We'll help you make some of these important decisions. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent do. Our appraisal fees are based on efforts to complete the report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
