Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Williams Appraisal and Realty Services, 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 house is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these people 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 amount of value and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced home won'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 the mortgage. And you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home is sitting still on the market.

With today's evolving market conditions, you should definitely considering hiring a licensed appraiser to get a fair listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your house? Then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes selected homes for sale in your area. It's a good starting point when deciding your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your home's time on the market, this is a really important step.

Even if you've been working with an expert real estate agent , it's in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value prior to signing a Listing Agreement.

That's where we come in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.
