Appraise it Today Services for Realtors

Real estate professionals are challenged in this new and dynamic real estate market.  Appraise it Today offers sound advice to real estate professionals and sellers who are looking for professional appraisal advice.   We offer advice on listings, full listing appraisals,  and simple professional measurement services.

Have a listing you need an appraisal for?

Often a seller needs to be educated on the actual value of their home prior to listing.   An appraiser can help by offering the listing agent and home owner with pre-listing services.   A listing appraisal from Appraise it Today is a full appraisal of your property similar to one a buyer would receive on the purchase of your home.  This provides sellers with a few additional benefits:

• A report is a valuable unbiased tool in the development of a potential sales price.
• You will be made aware of any problems and eliminate any last -minute repair hassles that may delay closing.
• Decrease the chances of unknown problems that cause sale to fall through.
• A formal sketch of the home to be included in any marketing.

Some owners have an inflated opinion  of their home's value and an appraisal helps them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced home will not attract buyers and a professional appraisal can eliminate this problem.

Utilize our professional measurement services

There are many reasons why realtors and homeowners need houses measured as part of the home selling process.   Here are just a few:

• County square footage is incorrect.
• A new room has been added to the house.
• There is unpermitted living space that has been added to the house.
• The home was built before formal county records were kept (pre-1940).
• There is a finished basement or attic that home owner feels is part of the gross living area of the home.
• An enclosed sun room has been added and it is unclear if it should be counted as living area.
• A second opinion is needed on another appraiser's sketch.
• A granny unit has been added to the property.

Appraise it Today can help take the worry off a real estate professional shoulders so you won't be held liable for the square footage listed in your MLS listing being incorrect.
