We at Appraisal Partners, Inc. understand the particular needs of a homeowner after appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Appraisal Partners, Inc., are objective. We 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 property will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial 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 property's price, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value opinion than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

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 is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. At Appraisal Partners, Inc., we're experts in helping homeowners just like you dismiss undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal report from Appraisal Partners, Inc. is your chief weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. This can be be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow standpoint. Appraisal Partners, Inc. can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you like a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for precision? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? Appraisal Partners, Inc. can help you with that. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may want to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
