For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Peyco Southwest Realty 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 selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price -- not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. At Peyco Southwest Realty, we're veterans in helping homeowners just like you delete unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. The earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. A professional appraisal from Peyco Southwest Realty is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

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 -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint. Peyco Southwest Realty can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been handed a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have an expert double-check it for accuracy or do you want a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Peyco Southwest Realty offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comparables. If you're in a hurry, we'll provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? Peyco Southwest Realty can help you with that. While usually requested by banks, you may want to exploit this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
