For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Independent Property Appraisers, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At Independent Property Appraisers, LLC, we're experienced in helping customers just like you abolish undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better. An appraisal from Independent Property Appraisers, LLC is your perfect weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be inconvenient from a cash flow point of view, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Independent Property Appraisers, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.
