Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Paradigm Appraisal Service

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Are you working with an agent to list your home? Then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays similar 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 natural move.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion prior to signing a Listing Agreement, even if you are working with an experienced agent.

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

Using a licensed appraiser is the top way to get an accurate listing price for your home in today's changing market. Contact us today.

Paradigm Appraisal Service can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will intrigue buyers, and we can also:
  • Help provide expert advice when negotiating once you have a potential buyer
  • Wow potential buyers with written proof of your house's quality inside and out
  • Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour
  • Cut down the chances of unknown issues that can cause sales to break down
  • Cut out the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close
So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal 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 price value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract serious potential buyers, which means you throw away time and (not to mention) money and are left with no prospects for buying your home. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are so many important questions to ask yourself before listing your house. Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it... Should I finish my kitchen remodel... Nearly any project has the potential to influence value in some way. But not everything will have the same bang for the buck. Remodeling your kitchen might improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

We'll help you make some of these decisions. Appraisers have no vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent on commission will. Our fees are based on efforts to complete the report, and not a percentage of your home's sale price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from Paradigm Appraisal Service. When it comes to investing in your home and deciding on a fair price to sell at, we'll help you make the most financially sound decisions.
