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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and 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 house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and 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 more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value estimation than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to save money 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 less than 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. Agricultural Appraisals Unlimited is seasoned in helping homeowners just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging Franklin county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in a region that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. A professional appraisal from Agricultural Appraisals Unlimited is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender might just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in or near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Agricultural Appraisals Unlimited can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you wish a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for verity? Agricultural Appraisals Unlimited offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you're in a rush, we can provide 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? Agricultural Appraisals Unlimited can help you with that. While typically requested by banks, you may desire to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
