For-Sale-by-Owner (FSBO) / Pre-Listing ServicesIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Adam's Appraisal Services, will be objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract many interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's market value, not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value conclusion than yours.Challenging a property tax assessmentIf you live in a region that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better. Getting an appraisal from Adam's Appraisal Services is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.Appraisals to remove PMIA popular way to cut costs for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is down 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. Adam's Appraisal Services is experienced in helping people just like you remove unneeded PMI insurance.HELOC recently frozen?If your house is in a declining area, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value.
