Homeowner
Appraisal Services
Homeowners need appraisals or appraisal reviews for a
variety of reasons, including a mortgage refinance, home
equity loans, Pre-listing services, and PMI removal.
When you order an appraisal or review from us, you can
rest assured that you will get the best in professional
service, courtesy, and quality.
Refinance / Home Equity
Be sure that you request us if your lender asks you
for YOUR choice of appraisal firms. More than likely we
are already on their "approved list", and if not we will
quickly provide your lender with the necessary
documentation to become approved.
For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) / Pre-Listing
Services
It's very hard to be objective about your own home
because of your emotional attachment to it. A
Professional Appraiser is objective and will tell you
what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.
In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price
so your home will attract buyers, a professional
appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once
you have a potential buyer. It gives you something
concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third
party's opinion of your home's value, and not just you
saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers
know you have an emotional attachment to your home and
will be far more likely to give credibility to a
professional appraiser's value opinion than yours.
PMI Removal Appraisals
A popular money saver for homeowners in the last few
years is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage
loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments.
PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your
mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of
your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to
have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make
your monthly payments go down. We are experienced in
helping folks just like you rid themselves of unneeded
and unwanted PMI insurance.
