We at Blake Thomas understand the unique needs of a consumer after appraisal services. While our typical business clients understand the appraisal process and standard reporting formats, you as a consumer will get extra service in the form of an explanation of the process and even special consumer-friendly reporting forms if the assignment allows for them. For Sale By Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Blake Thomas, will be objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price -- not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value estimation than yours. PMI Removal AppraisalsPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are seasoned in helping folks just like you rid themselves of unnecessary PMI insurance. Challenge a property tax assessmentYour local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that is declining. This means you're paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting a professional appraisal from Blake Thomas is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment. Was your HELOC recently frozen?Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in or near a declining area. Not only can this be inopportune from a cash flow angle, but it can be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Blake Thomas can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
