Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at NC Appraisal Group 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 buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. NC Appraisal Group is seasoned in helping folks just like you rid themselves of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Wake county's assessment of your property

If you live in a region that is declining or not appreciating as much as other houses close by, your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an expert appraisal from NC Appraisal Group is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult from a cash flow standpoint, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. NC Appraisal Group can help you reinstate your HELOC.
