At 121Valuation, we understand the individual needs of a customer after appraisal services. Our usual business clients get the appraisal process and the standard reporting formats. Being a regular person not in the real estate industry that ordinarily doesn't see an appraisal on a regular basis, you'll receive extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more fully understand what we do and how we present our conclusions. For Sale by Owner/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at 121Valuation 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 price to sell at so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value opinion than yours.Challenging Tarrant County's assessment of your propertyYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that's going down or not appreciating as much as other homes close by. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. 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. Getting an appraisal report from 121Valuation is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.Need to remove PMI?A fashionable money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are qualified in helping homeowners just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.HELOC recently frozen?Your lender might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from 121Valuation can help you reinstate your HELOC.We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesHave you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a professional double-check it for precision or do you want a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from 121Valuation can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can, using online data sources as well as our own files.We can also provide you with a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had done before. Even though most review work is commissioned by lenders, homeowners suspecting they've been the victim of mortgage fraud are wise to invest in a second opinion. |
