Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Axis Valuation Services.

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 home is a lot more than they expected, 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. 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 home won't attract serious potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Every month your home stays on the market is another month you have to pay its mortgage. And all the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

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

Are you working with a real estate agent to sell your property? More than likely, they'll give you a comparative market analysis (or a CMA) that displays competing houses for sale in your town. It's a customary starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This step is really important if you're going to maximize your profit and minimize the house's time on the market.

Even if you've hired the most experienced real estate agent, it's in your best interest to also have a third-party's objective opinion before signing the Listing Agreement.

And that's where Axis Valuation Services can help you! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

A professional appraisal from Axis Valuation Services can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will attract potential buyers, and we'll also:

Provide tips to help you negotiate once you have found a prospective buyer
Provide written proof of your house's quality inside and out to impress potential buyers
Make you aware of problems and eliminate last-minute repair hassles
Cut down the chances of unknown dilemmas that can cause your sale to break down
Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements to add value

There are so many important questions to ask yourself before listing your property There are many important questions to ask yourself before listing your home -- and Axis Valuation Services can help with that. You should ask yourself questions like "Should we paint the entire house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that new bathroom?", "Do I need to finish my kitchen remodel?" Many things that we do to our houses have an effect on their value. Unfortunately, not all of them have an equal affect. Remodeling your kitchen may improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out the costs involved before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.
