Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Measured Values.

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Working with a real estate agent to sell your property? More than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (CMA) that displays competing sale homes in your town. It's a good starting point in deciding your home's listing price. For anyone looking to get most profit out of their house, which includes not having it for sale too long, this is a standard process.

Even if you have hired the most experienced real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement.

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

Using a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a precise listing price for your home in today's adapting market. Contact us today.

Measured Values can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will appeal to potential buyers, and we can also:
  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you have a an interested buyer
  • Provide written proof of your home's quality inside and out to blow away buyers
  • Make yourself aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles
  • Decrease the chances of unknown complications that cause the process to fold
  • Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal can be underwritten
A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they'd planned, so investing in an appraisal from Measured Values actually allowed these sellers 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 amount of value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes do not 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 sitting on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage.

Improvements to add value

There are so many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home. Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Should I finish my closet remodel... Nearly any project can affect value in some way. But not everything will have the same return on investment. While a kitchen remodel may improve your home's appeal, it might not add nearly enough to the value to justify your expenses.

We'll help you make some of these important decisions. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent on commission will. Our fees are not a percentage of the sales price -- our appraisal fees are based on efforts to finalize your report. So please consider ordering an appraisal from Measured Values. When it comes to investing in your house and setting a fair sales price, we'll help homeowners make the best decisions.
