Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact CitiWide Appraisal Services Kind & Professional Service

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Working with a real estate agent to list your house? More than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected sale homes in your area. It's a customary starting point in determining your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize the house's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a really important step.

Even if you've been working with the most accomplished real estate agent, it's in your best interest to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before signing the Listing Agreement.

That's where we come 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 home's features.

With today's ever-changing market conditions, you should definitely considering hiring a licensed appraiser to get an expert listing price for your home. Contact us today.

Improvements to add value
