Pre-Listing Appraisals

Set the Right Price from Day One

Pricing your home correctly is the most critical step in the selling process. If you set the price too high, your home may sit on the market for months, becoming "stale" and eventually requiring a drastic price drop. If you set it too low, you risk leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

While real estate agents can provide a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), a pre-listing appraisal offers an objective, in-depth analysis from an unbiased, certified professional. We have no vested interest in the sale of the home, meaning you get the most accurate, realistic valuation possible.

A pre-listing appraisal from 3:16 Appraisals is a small investment that can yield a significant return by helping you sell faster and for top dollar.

"Gary is professional and detail oriented so that you get an accurate appraisal. I would highly recommend him! As a homeowner I have his appraisal to make sure I know what our house is potentially worth and to compare to appraisals that a bank might provide. This is important, especially if you're planning to sell or refinance your home. The housing market is ever changing so even getting an appraisal by Gary once every couple of years is well worth money!!"

"We hired Gary to do an appraisal on our vacant land lot and he was amazing. He was very good at communicating with us. The report he sent over was clear and easy to read and he even went over it with us to make sure we understood it. 10/10 would recommend and use him again."
