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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Williams Appraisal Service, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract many interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price -- not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your property, 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. We are veterans in helping clients just like you dismiss unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Lee county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other properties nearby. That only means you are paying more taxes than you should. The faster you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from Williams Appraisal Service is your #1 weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is close to a declining area. Not only can this be unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Williams Appraisal Service can help you reinstate your HELOC.
