Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Parisi 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.

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their home is more than they estimated, so investing in a professional appraisal from us 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 value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes 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 home sits on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is still sitting on the market.

In today's evolving market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a sharp listing price for your home.

If you're working with a real estate agent to list your property, more than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes comparable homes for sale in your local area. It's a good starting point when determining 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 been working with an expert agent , it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before you sign the Listing Agreement.

And that's where Parisi Appraisal Group, LLC comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you find a prospective buyer
Blow away buyers with written proof of your house's condition inside and out
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles
Decrease the chances of unknown dilemmas that cause negotiations to fizzle
Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements that add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be other equally important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home. Questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that new bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my kitchen remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses have an effect on their value. But not everything will have an equal affect. While a kitchen remodel may improve the appeal of a home, it might not add nearly enough to the value to justify your expenses.

We can step in and help make these decisions. An appraiser has no vested interest in what amount the house sells for, unlike a real estate agent. Our fees are based on efforts to complete your report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
