Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group.

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 an agent to sell your property? More than likely, you can expect them to provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes comparable sale homes in your town. It's a customary starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This step is crucial if you're going to maximize your profit and minimize your house's time on the market.

Even if you've been working with the most experienced agent, it's definitely in your best interest to also have a third-party's objective opinion before you sign a Listing Agreement.

And that's where O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group can help you! We can perform a pre-listing appraisal so you and your 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".

With today's adapting market conditions, you should definitely use a licensed appraiser to get a true listing price for your home. Contact us today.

O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will intrigue potential buyers, and we can also:
  • Help provide advice when negotiating once you have found a an interested buyer
  • Provide written proof of your house's quality inside and out to blow away buyers
  • Eliminate last-minute repair hassles and make yourself aware of problems that might delay a closing
  • Cut down the chances of unexpected messes that can cause your sale to deteriorate
  • Cut out waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have confidence the deal can be underwritten
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 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 over-inflated opinion of their home's amount of value to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes will not attract serious potential buyers, which means no offers and no closing and that you have wasted valuable time, money, and efforts. In the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your property is sitting still on the market.

Improvements to add value to your home

In addition to "how much?", there may be other important questions to ask yourself prior to listing your house. Would it be better to paint the entire house before we sell it... Does the carpet need replacing... Should I finish my kitchen remodel... Practically any project will influence value in some way. But, not all of them have an impact commensurate with their cost. While a kitchen remodel may improve your home's appeal, it may not add nearly enough to the value to justify the expenses.

O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group can help you with these decisions. O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group appraisers have no vested interest in what amount your house sells for, unlike an agent. An appraisal fee from O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group is based on our efforts to finalize the report, and are not a percentage of your home's sale price. A professional appraisal from O'Reilly Brothers Appraisal Group helps you make the decisions on investments to add value and setting a fair listing price.
