Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Crescent Appraisal Group, Inc..

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 get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. Others have an over-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 don't attract serious buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your house stays on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home is still sitting on the market.

In today's evolving market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the perfect way to get an accurate listing price for your home.

Working with a real estate agent to list your home? Then they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that includes a list of houses for sale in your local area. It's a good starting point in deciding your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize your house's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a vital step.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before you sign a Listing Agreement, even if you're working with the most experienced agent.

And that's where Crescent Appraisal Group, Inc. can help you! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

Crescent Appraisal Group, Inc. can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will draw in potential buyers, and we can also:

  • Be a very valuable negotiating tool once you have found a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your home's condition inside and out
  • Make you aware of problems and eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour
  • Cut down the chances of unexpected headaches that can cause your sale to crumble
  • Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements to add value

There are other important questions you should ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", prior to listing your house. You should ask yourself questions like "Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that new bathroom?", "Should I finish my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses have an effect on their value. But, not all of them 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.

Our fees are based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
