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

It's very hard to be objective about your house because of your emotional attachment to 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 many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It's something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. 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 removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. PCS Appraisals, Inc is qualified in helping homeowners just like you dismiss unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other homes close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from PCS Appraisals, Inc is your strongest weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in a declining area. Not only can this be difficult from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. PCS Appraisals, Inc can provide you with efficient appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.
