For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at 1 Valuations LLC, will be objective. We'll 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 interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours. Need to remove PMI?PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. 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 the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. 1 Valuations LLC is experienced in helping homeowners just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance. Challenging a property tax assessmentLets say your home is not appreciating as much as other properties close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal from 1 Valuations LLC is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment. Was your HELOC recently frozen?If your home is in a declining area, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value.
