Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact MAXWELL APPRAISAL 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 sell your home? Then they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays a list of homes for sale in your area. It's a customary starting point when 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 hired the most experienced real estate agent, it's definitely in your best interest to also 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 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".


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

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed these people to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes will not attract serious potential buyers, which means you throw away time and money and still have no prospects for buying your home. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Improvements to add value to your home

There are so many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it... Is now the time to add a deck... Do I need to finish my closet remodel... Virtually any project can influence value in some way. But, not all of them have an effect commensurate with their cost. A kitchen remodel might improve your home's appeal, but it may not justify the costs you'd pay.

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