Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from .

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'd planned, so investing in a professional appraisal actually allowed these sellers to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's price value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced house won't attract serious potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Each month that your home is still sitting on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And you're stuck paying the mortgage while your home sits on the market.

In today's adapting market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the #1 way to get a precise listing price for your home.

Improvements to add value to your home

There are other important questions you should ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", prior to listing your property.
