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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at ALLSTAR APPRAISERS, INC. are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. 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, which will make your monthly payments go down. At ALLSTAR APPRAISERS, INC., we're veterans in helping homeowners just like you rid themselves of unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

If you live in an area that is going down or not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are most likely 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. An appraisal report from ALLSTAR APPRAISERS, INC. is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area. Not only can this be inopportune from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An efficient appraisal from ALLSTAR APPRAISERS, INC. can help you reinstate your HELOC.
