Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Brent Turney Inc..

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 a lot more than they'd 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. An appraisal helps those who have an inflated opinion of their home's estimated value to decide on a realistic price for their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes will not attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your home 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 home is still sitting on the market.

With today's changing market conditions, you should definitely appoint a licensed appraiser to get a fair listing price for your home.

Working with an agent to sell your house? Then they'll provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) that includes similar houses for sale in your area. It's a good starting point when determining your home's listing price. If you're going to minimize the house's time on the market and maximize your profit, this is a really important step.

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

That's where Brent Turney Inc. comes in! We'll do 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.

Brent Turney Inc. can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will intrigue potential buyers, and we can also:

Be a valuable negotiating tool once you find a potential buyer
Wow potential buyers with written proof of your home's shape inside and out
Eliminate repair hassles at the eleventh hour

Home improvements that add value

There are other important questions you should ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", before listing your property. Questions like "Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Would it help to put in that new bathroom?", "Should I 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. Remodeling your kitchen may improve the appeal of a home, but be sure to figure out your expenses before diving in. It may not justify the time and costs involved.

Your fee to us is based on efforts to finalize the report, and not a percentage of your home's sale price.
