We at Desert Wide Real Estate Appraisers understand the special needs of a homeowner looking for appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)It's very hard to be objective about your home because of your emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Desert Wide Real Estate Appraisers will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value conclusion than yours. Appraisals to remove PMIPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to cut expenses 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 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. We are seasoned in helping clients just like you abolish unwanted PMI insurance. Challenge property tax assessmentsYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours. This only means you are most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of a matter like this, the better. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Desert Wide Real Estate Appraisers is your #1 weapon. HELOC recently frozen?If your property is close to a declining area, your lender might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow angle, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Desert Wide Real Estate Appraisers can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal. We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesHave you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a professional double-check it for precision or do you desire a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files. We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. While usually requested by banks, you may want to exploit this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property. |
