Pre-listing Services/For Sale By OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to 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 valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract buyers. It's something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value assessment than yours. Appraisals to cancel PMIPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down 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. At South Shore Realty Advisors, Inc, we're seasoned in helping clients just like you dismiss unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance. Challenge property tax assessmentsIf you live in an area that is declining or not appreciating as much as other properties close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That only means you're most likely paying more taxes than you should. 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 a professional appraisal from South Shore Realty Advisors, Inc is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment. HELOC recently frozen?If your house is close to a declining area, your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be inopportune from a cash flow angle, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. South Shore Realty Advisors, Inc can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.
