Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Brent Turney 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 Brent Turney Inc. actually allowed these people to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract serious buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your house sits on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is still sitting on the market.

With today's evolving market conditions, you should definitely appoint a licensed appraiser to get a proper listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to list your home? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays comparable homes for sale in your local area. It's a good starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This is a vital step if your goals are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

Even if you've hired the most experienced agent, it's in your best interest to also have a third-party's objective opinion of value before you sign a Listing Agreement.

And that's where Brent Turney Inc. comes in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your 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".

A qualified appraisal from Brent Turney Inc. can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will charm buyers, and we'll also:

Be a very valuable negotiating tool once you find a potential buyer
Blow away potential buyers with written proof of your home's shape inside and out
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make you aware of problems that might delay a closing
Cut down the chances of unexpected problems that can cause your sale to fall through
Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close.

Home improvements that add value

In addition to "how much?", there may be more important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your house. You should ask yourself questions like "Would it be better to paint the whole house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to complete my kitchen remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But everything will affect it in a different way. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.
