For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at M Davies Appraisal LLC will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A fashionable money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. M Davies Appraisal LLC is seasoned in helping people just like you remove unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. That means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from M Davies Appraisal LLC is your chief weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area. Not only can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. M Davies Appraisal LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
