Investor Appraisals

As more investors enter the market and the inventory of profitable homes continues to decrease, you have less room for error. 

Many investors unknowingly take on more risk by underestimating repair costs, overestimating after repair values (ARV), and purchasing in areas they are less familiar with. 

During these times, it’s important to proceed with vigilance. One effective way is to partner with Orion Appraisals on your next investment project.

4. Proper measurement techniques are vital to pricing your home. Realtors and appraisers follow special guidelines when measuring square footage, and square footage is often the most important factor influencing your property’s value. Have the added benefit of including a sketch with your marketing materials.
5. We’ll provide After Repair Values (ARVs). In addition to providing “as is” values, we can also tell you the after repair value of any property. 
6. You’ll sell it for the highest price possible.  Overpricing is the #1 cause of unsold real estate. Homes that are overpriced tend to sell for less than those that are appropriately priced. The difference can be as much as 10% of the property’s market value. 
7. Reduce expenses. Not only will your investment sell for more, but by knowing its market value before you list, you’ll be able to sell it faster and reduce your holding costs. 
8. Pricing a home can be challenging. This is even true for the most seasoned real estate agents (which is why we work with so many.) Each piece of real estate is unique. So whether it’s due to an unfamiliar or atypical location, unique amenities or design features, functional and external obsolescence, or physical depreciation, our appraisers are experts in each market throughout our service area. 
9. Market Rent Studies. We’ll use our private appraisal data resources to tell you if your units are underperforming, and if so exactly how much they will rent out for.
10. Peace of mind. How can you put a price on that?
