For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular money saver for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. At Everyday Appraisal, we're seasoned in helping customers just like you rid yourselves of undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

If you live in an area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal report from Everyday Appraisal is your chief weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your property is close to a declining area, your lender just might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be troublesome from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Everyday Appraisal can help you reinstate your HELOC.
