Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Ingram Appraisals

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

If you're working with An agent to sell your home, then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes similar sales houses in your town. It's a customary starting point when deciding your home's listing price. This step is really important if you're going to minimize the house's time on the market and maximize your profit.

Even if you have been working with the most accomplished real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value before signing a Listing Agreement.

That's where we come in! We'll 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 home's features.


	In today's changing market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a true listing price for your home. Contact us today.

Ingram Appraisals can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in potential buyers, and we can also:

Be a valuable negotiating tool once you have a an interested buyer
Provide written proof of your home's quality inside and out to blow away buyers
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make yourself aware of problems that might delay a closing
Cut down the chances of unknown obstacles that can cause your sale to fall through
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the deal will close

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they'd planned, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed these sellers to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's estimated value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property will not attract serious potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your house sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage.

Improvements to add value to your home

There are so many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home. Would it be better to paint the whole house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Do I need to finish my kitchen remodel... Virtually any project can affect value in some way. But each thing impacts marketability differently. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out your expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

Ingram Appraisals can help you with these important decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent on commission will. An appraisal fee from Ingram Appraisals is based on our efforts to finalize your report, and are not a percentage of the sales price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from Ingram Appraisals. When it comes to investing in your home and setting a fair sales price, we'll help homeowners like you make the smartest decisions.
