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

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at JB Appraisal Service LLC, are objective. We 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 home will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A popular way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are qualified in helping consumers just like you dismiss unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other homes close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal from JB Appraisal Service LLC is your chief weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is close to a declining area, your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow standpoint. JB Appraisal Service LLC can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.
