Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, 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 very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular way to save money for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are experts in helping customers just like you remove unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your house not appreciating as much as other properties close to yours. 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 earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. Getting an expert appraisal from Appraisal Works is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be inopportune from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisal Works can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for verity, or do you desire a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Appraisal Works can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a hurry, we'll provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may want to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
