Have confidence in your listing price with an appraisal from Ru Appraisals, 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 house is a lot more than they'd planned, so investing in an appraisal from Ru Appraisals, LLC actually allowed these people to receive several thousand more dollars than they thought they would when their home was sold. An appraisal helps those who have an over-inflated opinion of their home's price value to realistically price their home in order for it to sell. Overpriced homes don't attract potential buyers, which means you have wasted time on money and are left with no offers. Every month your house sits on the market is another month you have to pay the mortgage. And in the meantime, you're stuck paying the mortgage while your house is still sitting on the market.

In today's ever-changing market, hiring a licensed appraiser is the perfect way to get a solid listing price for your home.

Are you working with an agent to list your property? Quite often you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (or CMA) that displays a list of sale homes in your area. It's a good starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This step is really important if you're going to minimize your house's time on the market and maximize your profit.

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 of value before signing the Listing Agreement.

And that's where Ru Appraisals, LLC can help you! We'll do a pre-listing appraisal so you and your agent both have a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales and an accurate description of your home's features.

Ru Appraisals, LLC can help you decide on a realistic selling price so your house will attract potential buyers, and we can also:

Help provide expert advice when negotiating once you find a potential buyer
Provide written proof of your house's quality inside and out to blow away potential buyers
Eliminate last-minute repair hassles
Decrease the chances of unknown predicaments that cause negotiations to crumble
Do away with waiting for the buyer's appraisal to have assurance the sale will go through.

Improvements that add value to your home

There are other important questions to ask yourself, in addition to "how much?", before listing your home. You should ask yourself questions like "Would it be better to paint the outside of the house before we sell it?", "Should I put in that new bathroom?", "Should I complete my closet remodel?" Everything we do to our houses can affect their value. But not everything will have an equal affect. A kitchen remodel might improve the appeal of a home, but it may not justify the costs you'd pay.
