For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing ServicesIt's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Perkins Appraisals will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value estimation than yours. Need to remove PMI?Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut expenses for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping customers just like you abolish unneeded PMI insurance. Challenging property tax assessmentsLets say you live in a local area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from Perkins Appraisals is your strongest weapon. Recently got a freeze your HELOC?Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area. This can be be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult from a cash flow standpoint. Perkins Appraisals can provide you with an expert appraisal that will help you reinstate your HELOC. Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?Have you just received a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have a seasoned appraiser double-check it for preciseness or do you desire a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comparables in question. Or, if you're in a hurry, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files. We can also provide you with a a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had in the past. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may need to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house. |
