Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from (208) 782-0233.

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

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's estimated value and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract serious 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 on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house is still sitting on the market.

In today's ever-changing market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the #1 way to get a factual listing price for your home.

Are you working with an agent to list your house? More than likely, they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes a list of sales houses in your town. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. This step is vital if you're going to minimize the house's time on the market and maximize your profit.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before you sign the Listing Agreement, even if you've hired the most experienced agent.

That's where we come in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so 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".

Upgrades that improve your home's value

(208) 782-0233 can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Questions like "Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Should I complete my kitchen remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But, not all of them have an equal affect.
