Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from REVARI (Real Estate Valuation and Research Inc.).

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 home is a lot more than they expected, so investing in an appraisal from REVARI (Real Estate Valuation and Research Inc.) actually allowed these people to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's price value to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your house sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home is sitting still on the market.

With today's ever-changing market conditions, you should definitely hire a licensed appraiser to get a true listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your home? Then they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays selected homes for sale in your town. It's a good starting point when deciding 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 also advantageous to have a third-party's objective opinion of value before signing the Listing Agreement, even if you've been working with the most experienced real estate agent.

And that's where REVARI (Real Estate Valuation and Research Inc.) comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

Provide expert tips to help you negotiate once you have found an interested buyer
Impress potential buyers with written proof of your house's condition inside and out
Make you aware of problems and eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour

Improvements to add value to your home

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