Relocation appraisal

Employee relocations involve a critical appraisal at a key time in one's career and life. Accuracy and well-supported valuations are crucial when it is time to place the home on the market. When you are relocating to a new area for work, you need the assurance that the relocation process goes smoothly and without delays. 

Taking advantage of your employer's relocation assistance frees you to buy in your new area and allows families to stay together more so than would otherwise be the case. The relocation appraisal is a complex residential assignment that requires not only comparable sale analysis, but also active listing analysis and contextual market analysis. Thus, it entails specialized expertise, training and skills on the part of the appraiser or appraisal firm you select. Be sure the appraiser involved has experience specifically in relocation appraisals. Don't be afraid to ask them how long they have worked in this genre.

When the professional appraiser performs a relocation appraisal, we consider all relevant factors of the home including recent upgrades and repairs. We carefully analyze recent closed sales, pending sales, as well as competing listings in the area. We offer a forecast of the likely sales price you can rely on, considering the dynamics of the neighborhood at the time of the relocation. All relocation appraisals are reported on the standard ERC Residential Appraisal Report multi-page form, the industry's accepted relocation appraisal format.
