Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

It's very hard to be objective about your house because of your 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 valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. It's 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 home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is an attractive money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping clients just like you rid yourselves of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

If you live in a region that is declining or not appreciating as much as other properties close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're paying more taxes than you should. The earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from BizApps, Inc. is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in or near a declining area. Not only can this be difficult from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. BizApps, Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
