At Appraisal Venture, we understand the unique needs of a customer seeking appraisal services. While our typical clients understand the appraisal process and standard reporting formats, you as a consumer will get an extra level of customer service in the form of an explanation of the process and even special consumer-friendly reporting forms if the assignment allows for them. Pre-listing Services/For Sale By OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Appraisal Venture are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value conclusion than yours. Need to remove PMI?Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At Appraisal Venture, we're seasoned in helping people just like you rid themselves of unnecessary PMI insurance. Challenging Middlesex county's assessment of your propertyYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that's going down or is not appreciating as much as other homes close by. This only means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of things like this, the better. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Appraisal Venture is your number one weapon. Recently got a freeze your HELOC?Your lender just might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in or near a declining area -- 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 disadvantageous from a cash flow viewpoint. An efficient appraisal from Appraisal Venture can help you reinstate your HELOC. Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesDo you need an expert to double-check your appraisal 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'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. Need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? We can help with that too. While usually requested by banks, you may want to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home. |
