Home Measurement

This is one of our most frequently requested services. In my opinion no one should list a house without having it measured by a professional Appraiser. Every week I see homes where the county records and/or prior MLS listing were significantly incorrect. In many cases this results in a below market sale, simply because the agent didn't find out the actual size of the house they were listing. 

I use a top of the line laser measurement device and a tablet to measure each wall of the home to the nearest inch. Long gone is pulling out the measuring tape and paper clipboard. I can provide you with the results before I leave. I also measure porches, patios, decks, out buildings and any other feature that will help you best describe the features of the home in the MLS listing.

Many agents go into a basement look around and then make a guess about what percentage of the basement is finished! I will measure the unfinished areas and show it on the sketch, no guess work involved. The percent finished will be exact!

Set yourself apart from other agents in your listing appointment. Explain to your client that just like you will bring in a photographer to take photos, you will bring in a professional appraiser to measure the home so everyone knows exactly the size of what is being sold.

Pre-Listing Appraisal

Figuring out what to price to list that townhouse in Herriman at is probably going to be pretty easy for you, but that 3 acre property in West Jordan with a 5,000 sqft house built in 1930 with a huge workshop and a pool is going to be a challenge for anyone! It gets especially difficult if the seller thinks its worth $5,000,000.  Getting the list price right is the most important part of listing a home on UtahRealEstate.com. Getting the opinion of an appraiser with 28 years experience of figuring out the market value of a property can help make you look like a rockstar to your clients. Plus it takes some heat off you as the agent. Have you ever been in a situation where you have tried to convince your seller that what they want to list the property at is to high and is going to result in a much longer time on the market than the seller wants? Having an appraisal completed on the property you are going to list on UtahRealEstate.com can give you the data you need to help the seller better understand the property's true value.

Continuing Education Classes for your Office

For years I have been going to brokerages and teach Real Estate Agents about the appraisal process. My state approved CE course (Course #R240626) titled "Appraisal for Real Estate Agents" will help agents understand the basics of appraisal. The course title is boring and pretty simple, but the course itself is like nothing you have seen before. You will come away understanding the appraisal process and what to do if you get an appraisal that is less than the sale price. Typically there is no cost for me to come to your office and teach this 2 hour course. Lets get you on the schedule!
