Pre-Listing Appraisal Services from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC

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 home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in an appraisal from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC actually allowed them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an inflated opinion of their home's price value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property will not attract serious potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house sits on the market.

Hiring a licensed appraiser is the top way to get a factual listing price for your home in today's fluctuating market.

Are you working with an agent to list your property? Quite often they'll give you a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes similar houses for sale in your town. It's a good starting point in deciding 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.

Even if you've been working with an experienced agent , it's in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before you sign the Listing Agreement.

That's where Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC comes in! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have an accurate description of your house's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

In addition to assisting you with setting a realistic price to sell so your house will entice potential buyers. An expert appraisal from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC can:

Provide tips to help you negotiate once you have an interested buyer
Provide written proof of your home's shape inside and out to impress potential buyers
Make you aware of problems and eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour
Decrease the chances of unexpected difficulties that cause negotiations to deteriorate
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the sale will go through.

Home improvements that add value

Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home. Ask yourself "Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Should I finish my kitchen remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. Remodeling your kitchen may 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.
