Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact Murphy Appraisal Group, LLC

Avoid having your home on the market too long or selling yourself short by getting an appraisal to demonstrate the right listing price.

If you're working with a real estate agent to list your home, then you can expect them to give you a comparative market analysis (CMA) that displays competing sales houses in your town. It's a customary starting point in deciding your home's listing price. This is a crucial step if your interests are to maximize profit and minimize your time on the market.

However, it's definitely in your best interest to have a third-party's objective opinion before signing a Listing Agreement, even if you've been working with an experienced agent.

That's where Murphy Appraisal Group, LLC comes in! We'll perform a pre-listing appraisal so both you and your agent have an accurate description of your home's features and a detailed analysis of the most recent and similar comparable sales or "comps".


	In today's ever-changing market, appointing a licensed appraiser is the number one way to get a precise listing price for your home. Contact us today.
