Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Zink Appraisals Inc.

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price. Working with a real estate agent to sell your property? More than likely, you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that includes competing homes for sale in your area. It's a good starting point in determining your home's listing price. This step is crucial if you're going to minimize your house's time on the market and maximize your profit.

In our opinion, though, you should also get an appraisal from a licensed professional who tracks real estate values for living - BEFORE putting your home on the market - even if you're working with an experienced real estate agent.

That's where we come in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comp sales and an accurate description of your house's features.

With today's evolving market conditions, you should definitely appoint a licensed appraiser to get a proper listing price for your home. Contact us today.

In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a skillful appraisal from Zink Appraisals Inc. can:
  • Provide tips to help you negotiate once you find a potential buyer
  • Impress buyers with written proof of your house's condition inside and out
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make yourself aware of problems
  • Cut down the chances of unknown obstacles that can cause sales to go up in smoke
  • Do away with waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal will close
Many people are surprised 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 them to get several thousand dollars over what they thought they'd get for their home. Others have an over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value and an appraisal helped them to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. An overpriced property won't attract serious potential buyers, which means you waste time and (not to mention) money and still have no prospects for buying your home. Every month your home stays on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage.

Upgrades that improve your home's value

There are many important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your home -- and Zink Appraisals Inc. can help with that. Should we paint the entire house before we sell it... Would it help to put in that third bathroom... Should I finish my kitchen remodel... Practically any project can affect value in some way. But not everything will have the same return on investment. Remodeling your kitchen may improve your home's appeal, but be sure to figure out your expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

Zink Appraisals Inc. can help you with these important decisions. Zink Appraisals Inc. appraisers have no vested interest in the amount the house sells for, unlike a real estate agent. Our appraisal fees are based on efforts to finalize your report, and not a percentage of the sales price. So please consider ordering an appraisal from Zink Appraisals Inc.. When it comes to investing in your home and deciding on a fair sales price, we'll help homeowners like you make the best decisions.
