Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

Since you have an emotional attachment to your 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. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A popular money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are experienced in helping people just like you dismiss unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that's declining. This only means you are probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal report from Denlinger Appraisal Associates is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be troublesome from a cash flow viewpoint, and negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Denlinger Appraisal Associates can help you reinstate your HELOC.
