Pre-Listing Appraisals

Properties that aren’t priced right simply don’t sell. Overpriced listings collect days on the market and frequently end up selling for much less than they would have had they been priced right at the beginning. Avoid this by getting a professional, expert pre-listing appraisals from Jones Appraisal.

Every month that a property sits unsold drains the owner’s wallet. It takes no time for an owner to spend more in carrying costs (mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities) while the property is listed than the total cost of an appraisal. If you want your property sold quickly, invest in a pre-listing appraisal.

Jones Appraisal provides an accurate, substantive listing appraisal service for property owners and realtors in San Francisco and Marin County, California. We’ll perform a pre-listing appraisal to provide your real estate team with a detailed analysis of the most recent comparable sales and an accurate description of your property's features. Our report will help you decide on an attractive selling price so that your property draws in buyers, and:

>> Provide expert advice when negotiating once you find a prospective buyer

>> Provide written proof of your homes condition, inside and out

>> Eliminate last-minute repair hassles

>> Cut down the chances of unknown problems that can cause your sale to fizzle

>> Cut the wait for the buyer’s appraisal, assuring the sale will go through

An overpriced property will not attract potential buyers, which means no offers, no closing and wasted time, money, and effort. An underpriced property means low ball offers and thousands of dollars in value lost. To maximize your profit and minimize your properties time on the market, it’s in your best interest to have an objective, third-party opinion before signing the listing agreement.

The professional appraisers at Jones Appraisal render unbiased, neutral opinions of value. We’ll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping, you set a realistic price to sell so your property will attract interested buyers, a pre-listing appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. The pre-listing appraisal is a true, independent third party’s opinion of your properties market value, backed by a credible, expert state-certified appraiser.

Very experienced in Tiburon--over 20 years of personal work here and third generation in the business. Very professional. Very fair price--not all about hype but not too conservative. Was out to evaluate site in 24 hours from first call. Completed appraisal in 3 days. Fair price. Best appraiser I've ever seen in Tiburon. Use him!!

Parker Jones was chosen by my mortgage lender to appraise the value of my home. He was very responsive in setting up the appointment, showed up on time, and was very respectful by removing his shoes before entering. He returned the report to my lender quickly and the all of the important items in the report were accurate. He evaluated my home and returned a honest and accurate value based on facts and his knowledge of the neighborhood and market. In a business where many claim to know your area and have much experience, Parker not only proved his claims, but was a pleasure to work with.

We spent hours researching the top appraisal businesses in San Francisco and finally chose Jones Appraisal, as they came most highly recommended. Parker came out and did a tax/estate appraisal on our property and we were beyond pleased with the service. He was young, sharp and seemed highly knowledgeable about our neighborhood. The report was accurate and it came back to us in less than a day. If you're looking for a great appraisal, we highly recommend!
