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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Regional Appraisal, LLC. 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 house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something concrete to show the 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 you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your house, 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 Regional Appraisal, LLC., we're experienced in helping folks just like you do away with unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that's going down. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. 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 an appraisal report from Regional Appraisal, LLC. is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in or near a declining area. This can be be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also annoying from a cash flow angle. Regional Appraisal, LLC. can provide you with efficient appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you need a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Regional Appraisal, LLC. can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. If you're in a rush, we'll provide 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? Regional Appraisal, LLC. can help you with that. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
