Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from CR&S Appraisal Services.

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

A lot of sellers are shocked when they find out that the market value of their house is a lot more than they'd planned, so investing in an appraisal from CR&S Appraisal Services actually allowed these people 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 decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. Each month that your home is still sitting on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. All the while you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Hiring a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a precise listing price for your home in today's fluctuating market.

Are you working with an agent to sell your home? Then they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that displays similar houses for sale in your area. It's a customary starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This is a crucial (and very logical) step if your intentions are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion of value prior to signing the Listing Agreement, even if you are working with an experienced agent.

And that's where CR&S Appraisal Services comes in! We can do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your real estate agent both have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".

CR&S Appraisal Services can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will entice buyers, and we can also:

  • Help provide expert advice when negotiating once you have a potential buyer
  • Impress potential buyers with written proof of your home's quality inside and out
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make you aware of problems that might delay a closing
  • Decrease the chances of unexpected quandaries that cause negotiations to fall through
  • Eliminate the wait for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the deal will close.

Improvements to add value to your home

CR&S Appraisal Services can help you answer the many important questions to ask yourself before listing your property. Ask yourself "Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that new bathroom?", "Do I need to 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 your home's appeal, it may not add nearly enough to the value to justify your expenses.

CR&S Appraisal Services can help you with these decisions. Appraisers don't have any vested interest in your final selling price, like a real estate agent do. Your fee to us is based on efforts to finalize the report, and not a percentage of the sales price.
