Pre-listing, pre-purchase & FSBO

Overview

Before you set a list price or write an offer, an independent appraisal gives you a number that isn't tied to a commission or a sale.

It's especially valuable for unique, custom, or thin-comp properties, where an automated estimate or a quick comparative market analysis falls short.

When to use it

• Pricing a home before listing (FSBO or with an agent)
• Validating an offer before you buy
• Unique, custom, or hard-to-comp properties
• Setting a fair price between family members

What's included

• USPAP-compliant appraisal report
• Current comparable sales analysis
• Interior inspection, or desktop / drive-by option
• Independent value opinion — no commission attached

What we'll need for the engagement letter

• Your timeline
• Whether you're listing or purchasing
• Any recent improvements or known issues
