INDEPENDENT VALUE BEFORE A MAJOR DECISION

Pre-listing & private-sale appraisals

A researched opinion of value before setting an asking price, negotiating a private sale, or evaluating an offer.

A SCOPE BUILT AROUND THE QUESTION

Clear analysis for a specific purpose.

An appraisal can provide an independent reference point before a property is exposed to the market or transferred privately. It is especially useful when the home is unusual or the decision would benefit from analysis beyond an automated estimate.

THIS MAY BE HELPFUL FOR

  • Pre-listing pricing decisions
  • Private sales between known parties
  • Offer and negotiation support
  • Distinctive or difficult-to-compare homes

HOW THE ASSIGNMENT MOVES FORWARD

  1. Discuss the property and the decision the appraisal must support.
  2. Inspect, research, and analyze the most relevant market evidence.
  3. Explain the value conclusion and the factors that influenced it.

DISCUSS THE PROPERTY AND PURPOSE

Start with a confidential conversation.
