Appraisal Services for Homeowners

Appraisals or appraisal reviews are necessary for homeowners for many reasons, for instance, home equity loans, pre-listing services or a mortgage refinance. We guarantee a specialized, courteous and superior service should you choose to get an appraisal or appraisal review from us.

Home Equity / Refinancing

Make us your ONLY choice of appraisal firms should your lender want your say in which appraisal firm to use. It's probable that we already feature on their "approved list", but on the rare occasion that this is not the case, all the relevant documentation will be supplied to your lender to become approved.

Pre-Listing / For-Sale-By-Owner Services

It's extremely difficult to be objective about your own house due to your emotional attachment to it as your home. As qualified appraisers it is our business to be objective and we can tell you not only what you want to hear, but also what is important to know. Apart from aiding you to set a realistic selling price for your home to make it draw the attention of buyers, once a prospective investor has been found a qualified appraisal works as an extremely precious negotiating tool. It provides you with something tangible to illustrate to your buyer. Not only does it portray the value of your home, it does so through the eyes of an independent and objective third party. The emotional attachment factor is well understood by any prospective buyer when it comes to your home and a professional appraisal will give much more credence to the value put forward than your own.

Removal of PMI Appraisals

Over the past few years it has become fashionable to have the PMI removed from a mortgage loan as it enables the homeowner to save money on their monthly payment installments. PMI is short for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payment installments can usually be decreased once your mortgage loan amount has fallen below 80% of your properties value if an application is submitted to have the PMI removed from your loan. Unnecessary and unwanted PMI insurance can be made a thing of the past, and we are practiced in aiding people just like yourself in making that so.
