🔍 Ever wonder why it's crucial for a listing agent to meet the appraiser? 🤔 Some might say it's controversial, because technically we’re not suppose to talk to them but let me break it down for you. As a top-performing listing agent, I understand the value of providing the full story behind a property. When I meet with the appraiser, I bring more than just paperwork – I bring insights, comps, and upgrades that showcase the true worth of your home.

🔍 Understanding the importance of meeting the appraiser:

Providing Context: As the listing agent, I possess intimate knowledge of the property, including any upgrades, renovations, or unique features that might not be apparent from a simple walk-through.

Presenting Comps: While appraisers conduct their own research, my role is to present comps that support the desired purchase price. By sharing relevant comparables and explaining their significance, I ensure that the appraiser has a comprehensive understanding of the local market, recent sales trends, and why my listing got the price it did.

Highlighting Upgrades: From kitchen remodels to backyard transformations, upgrades can significantly impact a property's value. By personally showcasing these enhancements to the appraiser, I help justify the list price and differentiate the property from others in the area. Upgrades are rated by the last 5 years, 10 years, and the past 10 years are not valued much.

Maximizing Value: Ultimately, my goal is to ensure that the property is valued accurately and, whenever possible, exceeds expectations. When I get to my listing I turn on all the lights, open the window coverings, turn on any features, and make sure it's sparkling and smells good!

As a top-performing listing agent, I'm committed to going above and beyond to secure the best possible outcome for my clients.
