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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about 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 very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers. It's something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is 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. We're seasoned in helping customers just like you rid themselves of undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other properties close by. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. 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. An appraisal report from S7 Appraisal Company LLC is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also annoying from a cash flow point of view. S7 Appraisal Company LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
