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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Anglum Appraisal 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 very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A fashionable 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 amount is below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At Anglum Appraisal, we're veterans in helping consumers just like you dismiss unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in a local area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of things like this, the better. A professional appraisal from Anglum Appraisal is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in or near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow angle, and unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Anglum Appraisal can help you reinstate your HELOC.
