At All City Appraisal, we understand the special needs of a consumer after appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at All City Appraisal, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value assessment than yours. Need to remove PMI?PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're qualified in helping customers just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance. Challenge property tax assessmentsYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. That only means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from All City Appraisal is your number one weapon. Recently got a freeze your HELOC?If your house is in a declining area, your lender might just decide 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 point of view, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. All City Appraisal can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal. We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesWould you prefer a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for verity? All City Appraisal offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. If you need it in a rush, we'll provide you with a 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? All City Appraisal can help with that too. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home. |
