Every order includes both a conventional appraisal report and a separate listing price recommendation letter suitable for marketing.

LISTING PRICE APPRAISALS   Real estate markets rarely stand still.  It's called a cycle for a reason, and trying to keep pace with where a property lies within this cycle can be a challenge.

Conducting an appraisal for the purposes of setting a listing price is a two step process.  The first step is to establish the market value of the property utilizing traditional appraisal techniques.  We conduct a complete assessment of the property.  We then compare the property to other recent Listing Price Recommendation Lettersales (a.k.a. comps) in the immediate area.  Adjustments are made to the price of those comps for differences in the number of bedrooms or bathrooms, square footage, lot utility, view, upgrades, etc.  Through this process, the appraiser is able to estimate the market value of the property being appraised.

The second step to conducting a listing appraisal is to analyze the properties that are currently listed in the immediate neighborhood... properties that will be competing for the attention of prospective buyers.  Based upon that analysis, we recommend a listing price range that should generate top dollar for the seller while representing a fair, supportable price for buyers.

Our listing price recommendation is contained within a cover letter that is issued along with the property appraisal itself.  This allows the listing agent to show the letter to prospective buyers in support of the property's reasonable list price without disclosing the market value contained within the appraisal itself.

We recommend a listing range rather than a specific list price so that the listing agent and the seller can make a final decision based on the circumstances of the sale.  For instance, a seller that is in no hurry and believes that the market is strengthening may opt to list their home at the higher end of the range while a seller who has already closed escrow on another property may be inclined to price their home at the lower end of the range to encourage a short marketing time.
