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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your 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. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. Sloan Real Estate Services PLLC is veterans in helping homeowners just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that is going down. This only means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. 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. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Sloan Real Estate Services PLLC is your strongest weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your property is in or near a declining area, your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - 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. An efficient appraisal from Sloan Real Estate Services PLLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.
