Putting a house on the market in or near Hinds County? Contact Cornerstone Appraisal, Inc. (Curtis Robinson)(601) 260-2285 and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. An appraisal doesn't cost that much and it pays in the long run! Unless the homeowner makes a career out of studying real estate values, like a professional appraiser does, it's practically impossible for them to fully grasp local real estate values.

While important, an appraisal is not about how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.
