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

It's very hard to be objective about your 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 crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract many interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete 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 know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value report than yours.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that is declining. This only means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. An expert appraisal from Sizemore Appraisal Services, LLC is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Sizemore Appraisal Services, LLC is seasoned in helping customers just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. This can be difficult from a cash flow viewpoint, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Sizemore Appraisal Services, LLC can provide you with an expert appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you wish a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a seasoned appraiser to double-check your appraisal for preciseness? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you need it immediately, 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.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can assist you. While usually requested by banks, you may need to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
