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

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 list your home? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes selected homes for sale in your local area. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize your house's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a vital step.

In our opinion, though, you might also wish to consider a pre-listing appraisal from a professional who's sole occupation is to analyze real estate - BEFORE putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced agent.

That's where we come in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

With today's adapting market conditions, you should definitely use a licensed appraiser to get a precise listing price for your home. Contact us today.

Browning Appraisal can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in buyers, and we can also:
  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you have found a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your house's state inside and out
  • Make yourself aware of problems and eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour
  • Decrease the chances of unexpected quandaries that cause the process to break down
  • Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the sale will go through
A lot of sellers are shocked 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 receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced home won't attract 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.

Improvements that add value to your home

Browning Appraisal can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your property. Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it... Does the fence need replacing... Should I finish my kitchen remodel... Virtually any project will influence value in some way. But not everything will have the same return on investment. Remodeling your kitchen may improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out the costs involved 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. Browning Appraisal appraisers have no vested interest in the amount your house sells for, unlike an agent. An appraisal fee from Browning Appraisal is based on our efforts to complete the report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from Browning Appraisal. When it comes to investing in your house and setting a fair sales price, we'll help you make the most financially sound decisions.
