Need a pre-listing appraisal? Contact McCormick Appraisal Services, LLC

Home prices break records in Mass. Sales fall. Rinse, lather, defeat.

Lots of folks get a pleasant surprise when they realize their home is worth way more than they thought. By getting an appraisal from McCormick Appraisal Services, LLC, they ended up pocketing a few extra thousand bucks compared to what they initially expected. Then there are those home sellers who think their place is a goldmine, but thanks to an appraisal, they got a reality check on pricing it right to actually sell. If you slap on a price tag that's too high, serious buyers won't bite, and you're just burning time and money with no offers in sight. Every month your home hangs out on the market is another month you're stuck footing the mortgage bill. It's like you're shelling out cash while your home just chills, unsold.

Using a licensed appraiser is the perfect way to get a correct listing price for your home in today's ever-changing market.

If you're teaming up with a real estate agent to list your house, they'll likely hand you a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), which basically shows what similar houses in your area are going for. It's the go-to move when figuring out the right price for your home, especially if you want to make a good profit and avoid a lengthy sale.

But here's our take: even if you're working with a seasoned real estate agent, it's a good call to get a pre-listing appraisal from a pro like us at McCormick Appraisal Services, LLC—before your house hits the market.

Why us? Well, we can whip up a pre-listing appraisal that gives you and your agent a detailed breakdown of recent comparable sales and a spot-on description of your home's features.

Not only can we help you land on a realistic selling price that grabs buyers' attention, but we can also:

Offer expert advice during negotiations with interested buyers.
Provide written proof of your home's condition to impress potential buyers.
Nip last-minute repair hassles in the bud.

Unlike real estate agents, we don't have a stake in your selling price. Our fees are based on the effort we put into your report, not a percentage of the sales price. So, consider getting an appraisal from us at McCormick Appraisal Services, LLC. When it comes to making savvy decisions about your home and setting a fair sale price, we've got your back.
