If you, or anybody you know, is selling a home, we urge you to really take note of this guide and share it around. Often, we come across homeowners who are just expecting too much from their listing agent. After making some improvements, they expect too much from the valuation and sometimes the demands are completely unrealistic.
During the valuation process, your listing agent will take steps to ensure the valuation is as high as possible. For example, they’ll partner with Pearl Certification, they’ll be present during the appraisal, they’ll provide important information, they’ll provide any required documentation, and they’ll answer any questions the appraiser has regarding the property. When trying to get the best value, these small steps really help. However, there is a limit and you need to be aware of this cap so you can then manage your expectations accordingly.
