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. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract 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 how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

A fashionable money saver for homeowners is getting 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 less than 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Township Appraisal , we're veterans in helping homeowners just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging Washington county's assessment of your property

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other properties nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal from Township Appraisal is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, 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. This can this be annoying from a cash flow point of view, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Township Appraisal can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
