Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Accuracy Matters Appraisals, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A preferred way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled 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 amount is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Accuracy Matters Appraisals, we're veterans in helping homeowners just like you delete unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Lets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you are paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. An expert appraisal from Accuracy Matters Appraisals is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your home 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. This can this be troublesome from a cash flow viewpoint, and harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Accuracy Matters Appraisals can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
