Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Integrated Assets.

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

Many people are surprised when they find out that the market value of their house 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. There are also plenty of home sellers who think their home is worth a lot more than it really is, and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced house won't attract serious potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Each month that your home is still on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. All the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home sits on the market.

Using a licensed appraiser is the best way to get a factual listing price for your home in today's adapting market.

Working with a real estate agent to list your home? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays competing sales houses 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 logical move.

However, it's also advantageous to have a third-party's objective opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you're working with the most experienced real estate agent.

And that's where Integrated Assets comes in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

Integrated Assets can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will interest buyers, and we can also:

Help provide expert advice when negotiating once you have found an interested buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of your home's quality inside and out
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make you aware of problems that might delay a closing
Reduce chances of unexpected problems that can cause your sale to go up in smoke
Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal can be underwritten.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are other important questions to ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", before listing your property. Questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my closet remodel?" Everything we do to our houses have an effect on their value. But not everything will have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.
