Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Real Estate of the West, Inc. - Appraisal Services are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Real Estate of the West, Inc. - Appraisal Services, we're seasoned in helping homeowners just like you get rid of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Fremont county's assessment of your property

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. An appraisal report from Real Estate of the West, Inc. - Appraisal Services is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also annoying from a cash flow angle. Real Estate of the West, Inc. - Appraisal Services can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.

We Also Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just received a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a seasoned professional double-check it for preciseness or do you desire a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. Or, if you're in a rush, we can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may want to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
