Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Mike Henry Premier Appraisal, Inc.

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price.

A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their house is much more than they thought, so investing in an appraisal from Mike Henry Premier Appraisal, Inc. actually allowed these sellers to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. There are also plenty of sellers who think their home is worth much more than it really is, and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced house won't attract interested buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still 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.

In today's ever-changing market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a proper listing price for your home.

Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your house? Then they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays a list of sale homes in your area. It's a customary starting point when deciding your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize the home's time on the market, this is a vital step.

Even if you have been working with the most expert agent, it's definitely in your best interest to have an "objective" third-party's opinion of value before you sign the Listing Agreement.

And that's where Mike Henry Premier Appraisal, Inc. comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

Improvements that add value to your home

Mike Henry Premier Appraisal, Inc. can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home. Ask yourself "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my closet remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can have an effect on their value. But not everything will have an equal affect. While a kitchen remodel may improve the appeal of a home, it may not add nearly enough to the value to justify the expenses.

We'll step in and help make these decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like an agent do. Your fee to us is based on efforts to complete the report, and not a percentage of your home's sale price.
