Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact DS Real Estate Consulting, Inc.

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 sell your home? Then you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes similar sale homes in your area. It's a customary starting point in determining your home's listing price. This is a vital (and very logical) step if your main objectives are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

However, it's also advantageous to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before signing the Listing Agreement, even if you are working with the most experienced agent.

And that's where DS Real Estate Consulting, Inc. can help you! We'll perform 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 today's changing market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get an expert listing price for your home. Contact us today.

An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's estimated value to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced home won't attract interested buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your home sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage.

Improvements to add value

There are so many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Should we paint the entire house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Do I need to complete my closet remodel... Virtually any project can affect value in some way. But each thing impacts marketability differently. A kitchen remodel may improve your home's appeal, but it might not justify the costs you'd pay.

DS Real Estate Consulting, Inc. can help you with these decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent on commission will. Our appraisal fees are based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from DS Real Estate Consulting, Inc.. When it comes to investing in your house and setting a fair sale price, we'll help homeowners make the smartest decisions.
