Pre-listing Appraiser

Real estate agents usually say that they will work with you to determine the best price to ask for when you sell your home. However, this will often leave you wondering if their estimate is correct, especially if it seems too low or if your house sits on the market for too long without selling. The best way to avoid this uncertainty is to hire a pre-listing appraiser before you even approach an agent.

​

After you've been living in your home for years, you may think that you have a good handle on the value of your home and that you can easily tell if an agent is wrong. However, actually living in a house clouds the owner's judgment. Bad memories or events such as divorce can make it seem like the house isn't worth as much as it actually is, while good memories can produce a sense of high value that the market won't support. An otherwise-uninvolved party, such as a home appraiser in New Jersey, will be able to value it according to the hard facts. This allows an appraiser to come much closer to the price that you can actually expect to get.

​

If you've inherited a home, you will often face the opposite problem. Chances are, you've been living in some other area for many years, so you don't know what's been going on in terms of the relevant real estate market. You also are likely unaware of any deterioration, problems with things like the furnace or plumbing, or similar issues. Then, you need an estate appraiser to come and help. These appraisers not only know the concerns of people who have inherited property and the legal aspects surrounding it, but are ready to inspect the house and research local real estate market. This makes an estate appraiser the perfect partner as you decide what to do with the real estate that you now control.

​

A home appraiser in New Jersey can handle pre-listing, estate, and other types of appraisals. This makes it much easier for you to determine things like how much to ask when selling, whether or not to keep inherited property, and more. They also handle other situations, such as tax appeals, bankruptcy valuations, divorce appraisals, and anything else that makes it important to get an outside opinion on the value of a piece of property or the house sitting on it.
