Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Southeastern Valuation, LLC.

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

So many people are blown away when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they expected, so investing in a professional appraisal from us actually allowed these people to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value and an appraisal helped them to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your house sits on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Hiring a certified appraiser is the top way to get an expert listing price for your home in today's adapting market.

If you're working with an agent to list your property, then they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays selected sales in your local area. It's a customary starting point in deciding your home's listing price. For anyone looking to get most profit out of their house, which includes not having it for sale too long, this is a standard process.

However, it's also advantageous to have a third-party's objective opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you've hired the most experienced agent.

And that's where Southeastern Valuation, LLC comes in! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your home's features.

Improvements that add value to your home

There are so many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home There are many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home -- and Southeastern Valuation, LLC can help with that. You should ask yourself questions like "Should we paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that third bathroom?", "Should I complete my closet remodel?" You may not realize it, but everything we do to our houses can affect 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.
