Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Cornerstone Property Appraisal Group, LLC.

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 home is much more than they had planned, 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. There are also plenty of home sellers who think their home is worth much more than it really is, 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 interested 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 its mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property sits on the market.

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

If you're working with a real estate agent to list your house, more than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that includes comparable sales in your area. It's a good starting point when deciding your home's listing price. If you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your house's time on the market, this is a really important step.

In our opinion, though, you should also get a pre-listing appraisal from a professional who's sole occupation is to analyze real estate - PRIOR to listing your property - even if you're working with an experienced agent.

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

An expert appraisal from Cornerstone Property Appraisal Group, LLC can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will charm buyers, and we'll also:
