Pre-listing Services/For Sale by OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an 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. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers. It's something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value estimation than yours.Challenging property tax assessmentsYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby. That means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an expert appraisal from A J REAL ESTATE APPRAISAL SERVICES is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.Appraisals to remove PMIA popular way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments.

At A J REAL ESTATE APPRAISAL SERVICES, we're seasoned in helping homeowners just like you do away with unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?Your lender just might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value.
