For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Paige Appraisal Services, LLC will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just 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 expert appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to cut expenses for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Paige Appraisal Services, LLC is veterans in helping people just like you dismiss unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours -- your local tax assessor may have your home 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 faster you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Paige Appraisal Services, LLC is your chief weapon.

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 close to a declining area. This can be be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint. Paige Appraisal Services, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you prefer a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for verity? An appraiser from Paige Appraisal Services, LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. If you need it ASAP, we'll 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 report? Paige Appraisal Services, LLC can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may want to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
