We at Appraisers, Inc. understand the particular needs of a consumer in need of appraisal services. Our customary business clients understand the appraisal process and the customary "products" we deliver to them. As our client, we will give you extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to understand what we do and how we document our conclusions.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale by Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your house because of your emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Appraisers, Inc. 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 selling price so your property will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Challenge White County's assessment of your property

Let's say you live in a local area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you're paying more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal from Appraisers, Inc. is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Need to remove PMI?

A fashionable way to cut expenses 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 amount is less than 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. We are qualified in helping customers just like you rid yourselves of unnecessary PMI insurance.

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 in or near a declining area. This can be troublesome from a cash flow point of view, and unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisers, Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

We Offer 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 desire an expert to double-check your appraisal for preciseness? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. If you need it immediately, we'll provide 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 retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had done before. Although most appraisal reviews are requested by lenders for quality control, homeowners suspecting a prior appraisal wasn't above board are wise to get a second opinion.
