Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Az-Tech Appraisals

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 house is a lot more than they expected, 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. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property will not attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

In today's evolving market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get an accurate 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 (CMA) that displays a list of sales in your area. It's a good starting point when deciding your home's listing price. This is a vital (and very logical) step if your goals are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

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

And that's where Az-Tech Appraisals can help you! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your house's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell so your house will entice buyers. A skillful appraisal from Az-Tech Appraisals can:

Provide tips to help you negotiate once you have found a prospective buyer
