Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC.

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your house? Then they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes comparable sales houses in your area. It's a customary starting point when determining 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 vital step.

In our opinion, though, you might also wish to consider an appraisal from a licensed professional who tracks real estate values for living - BEFORE putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced agent.

That's where we come in! We can perform 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 helping you decide on a realistic price to sell so your house will draw in buyers. A polished appraisal from Gold Coast Appraisal Group LLC can:

• Provide tips to help you negotiate once you find a potential buyer
• Provide written proof of your house's quality inside and out to impress buyers
• Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make you aware of problems that might delay your closing
• Decrease the chances of unexpected difficulties that cause the process to break down
• Do away with waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Home improvements that add value

There are other important questions you should ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", prior to listing your property. You should ask yourself questions like "Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to complete my kitchen remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. A kitchen remodel may improve the appeal of a home, but it might not justify the costs you'd pay.

We'll help you make some of these important decisions. Appraisers don't have any 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 your home's sale price.
