For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Appraisal Connection 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 house will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value estimation than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A popular money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're seasoned in helping folks just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Greenville county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Appraisal Connection is your strongest weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your house is in or near a declining area, your lender just may choose 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 negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisal Connection can help you reinstate your HELOC.

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 need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for preciseness? An appraiser from Appraisal Connection can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. Or, if you need it in a rush, we can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide you with a a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have in your possession. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may wish to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
