How can you get rid of PMI to lower your mortgage payment?

Private Mortgage Insurance, or PMI, is an additional insurance policy that many lenders ask home owners to buy when the amount being loaned to the buyer is more than 80% of the actual value of the home. Since the additional payment is usually lumped into the monthly mortgage payment, it is often forgotten. This is bad because PMI is unnecessary when the remainder of the loan - whether through market appreciation or principal pay down - decreases below the 80% level. In fact, the United States Congress implemented a law in 1998 (the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998) that requires lenders to eliminate the PMI installments when the loan-to-value ratio conditions have been met.

Appraisers, Inc. will provide you with a statement regarding the value of your home, and the expense of the appraisal can usually be recovered in little time because you'll no longer be paying the PMI.

Settling a divorce with less stress with an appraisal from Appraisers, Inc.

A divorce is a particularly daunting experience for the parties involved, and it is often even more complicated by the burdensome decision of who maintains the home. It's a good idea to order an appraisal from Appraisers, Inc. so both parties are entirely aware of the true market value of their home, regardless of the circumstances.

Fair and accurate estate liquidation

The death of a loved one is a hard time in life, and settling an estate from a death, or probate, often requires an appraisal to establish Market Value for the residential property involved. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us with confidentiality, ensuring the maximum degree of discretion.

Most Americans do not have dedicated estate planners or executors to manage these matters, unlike wealthier individuals. A home or other property often makes up a disproportionate share of the total estate value, so knowing the true value of the real estate at hand is of vital importance to ensuring disputing parties leave knowing they've received a fair deal.
