Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Timberline Appraisals

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your home? Then they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays comparable sale homes in your area. It's a customary starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize your home's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a vital step.

In our opinion, though, you should also get an appraisal from someone who tracks real estate values for living - PRIOR to putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced agent.

And that's where Timberline Appraisals comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your home's features.

With today's evolving market conditions, you should definitely hire a licensed appraiser to get a skillful listing price for your home. Contact us today.

A polished appraisal from Timberline Appraisals can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will interest buyers, and we'll also:
  • Be a very valuable negotiating tool once you find a potential buyer
  • Provide written proof of your house's shape inside and out to impress buyers
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make yourself aware of problems
  • Cut down the chances of unexpected complications that can cause sales to flop
  • Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close
A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their home is much more than they had planned, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed them to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an inflated opinion of their home's estimated value 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 buyers, which means you squander time and money and are left with no prospects for buying your home. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

Timberline Appraisals can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your property. Should we paint the entire house before we sell it... Should I put in that new bathroom... Do I need to complete my closet remodel... Virtually any project will affect value in some way. But not everything will have the same bang for the buck. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out your expenses before diving in. It might not justify the time and costs involved.

Need help making some of these important decisions? We're here for you. An appraiser has no vested interest in what amount the house sells for, unlike a real estate agent. Your fee to us is based on efforts to complete the report, and not a percentage of the sales price. When it comes to investing in your home and settling on a fair price to sell at, a professional appraisal from Timberline Appraisals will help homeowners make the wisest decisions.
