Pre-Listing, Pre-Purchase, FSBO’s or Cash Buyer

Today's market can be challenging. Whether you're a homeowner selling your property independently or a seasoned realtor trying to set a fair listing price, navigating market data to determine the true value of your home can be difficult. Many homeowners and realtors turn to appraisers for help when establishing a competitive and accurate list price.

That’s where Top Corner Appraisal comes in. We have extensive experience working with homeowners selling on their own, as well as realtors who need support with their listings or need to demonstrate the true market value of a property to clients.

At Top Corner Appraisal, we offer professional third-party appraisals that provide a far more accurate valuation than a realtor’s Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). A pre-listing appraisal ensures both you and your agent have a clear understanding of your home’s features, along with a detailed analysis of recent, comparable sales.

In addition to helping you set a realistic and competitive selling price, a professional appraisal offers several advantages:

  • Effective Negotiation Tool: Helps in negotiations with potential buyers and their agents.

  • Buyer Confidence: Provides written proof of your home’s value, instilling confidence in buyers.

  • Upfront Issue Identification: Identifies repair issues early, eliminating last-minute hassles that could delay closing.

  • Reduces Sales Risk: Lowers the chances of a sale falling through due to unexpected problems.

Remember, overpriced homes attract fewer buyers, leading to fewer (or no) offers, and wasting valuable time, money, and effort. On the other hand, underpricing your home can result in leaving significant money on the table.

A pre-listing appraisal can help you and your realtor set the right list price, maximizing your chances of selling quickly and for top dollar. We can also advise on cost-effective improvements that could add value to your home.

Depending on your needs, a full appraisal may or may not be necessary. In some cases, a limited valuation or market analysis report is sufficient, while in others, a comprehensive interior and exterior appraisal may be required.
