"Price Your Home Right and it's Half Sold"

Experts agree, pricing a home correctly is the key to selling. Syndicated columnist Robert J. Bruss states “Price your home right and it is half sold.”1 National trainer for real estate sales agents, David S. Knox, lists these seven benefits to proper pricing:2

1. Faster Sale
2.
Less inconvenience
3. Exposure to more prospects
4. Increase salesperson response
5. Better response from advertising and sign  calls
6.
Attracts higher offers
7. Means more money to sellers

So, to assist you in setting the correct price for your home we created a new service called the—LISTING APPRAISAL®. Just as lenders are now prequalifying home buyers, you now can “prequalify” your home to sell.

LISTING APPRAISALs® give you a full appraisal for less than half the typical appraisal fee. You can use it to set your price, counter low offers and speed your home to a sale.

Not only does the home seller benefit but the buyer also gets a discount if they use us for the CLOSING APPRAISAL. It saves them money, speeds closing and helps prevent last minute problems due to the appraisal.

Take a look at the benefits LISTING APPRAISALs® will give you…

THE “REAL” MARKET PRICE

Your home is special. It’s full of memories. However, this affection can cloud your view of its real market value, resulting in an unrealistic asking price. Unrealistic asking prices scare away buyers, extend listing time and can leave you without a sale. Let us discover its true market value so you can sell quickly.

 

INCREASE CONFIDENCE

There’s no guessing when you have a LISTING APPRAISAL®. You’ll rest easy knowing the true value up front. Also, use this appraisal to increase the confidence of the buyers by showing they are getting a good value. You’ll look quite the professional.

 

THE FIRE DRILL

It’s a common experience. Everyone’s ready to close—then the appraisal comes in low. Start the fire drill! You have a slim chance of getting the appraisal changed, so you must either lower your price or convince the buyer to pay more. Guess which one you’ll end up doing? Right—lowering your price.Avoid this last minute disaster by knowing the appraised value up front.

 

COMBAT BARGAIN HUNTERS

Don’t be easy prey. Use your LISTING APPRAISAL® to combat any low purchase offers. It can be used to counter low-ball appraisals too. Not having this tool could cost you thousands of dollars.

 

FIX IT UP

Everyone knows a house in good condition sells faster and for more. But what repairs or cosmetic improvements are needed? And which ones give you the best return? Use our “needed repair” list to find out—no extra charge.

 

MORE PROSPECTS

When your home is priced at market value it will be open to more people who can afford it. People shop according to what they can afford. Yes, they will bargain, but only with homes within their range. Plus, agents show homes according to what their clients can afford. Don’t shorten your prospect list.

 

Closing Appraisal

We don’t just stop at the LISTING APPRAISAL®our service is full circle. Once you sell the home the buyer will need a closing appraisal. It’s similar to the LISTING APPRAISAL®, but must be completed according to the lender’s guidelines. Since some of the work has already been done, We’ll do the closing appraisal for a discounted price as-well. Plus, we do it in just days. Having us do the closing appraisal saves the buyer money, you worry and everyone—time. It’s full circle, from front to the back, to serve you.
