Pre-listing Services/For Sale By OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because you most likely have an 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. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value conclusion than yours. Appraisals to remove PMIPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We're experienced in helping folks just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.
