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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Salt Lake Appraising Company 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 valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just you saying how much you think your home 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 professional appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are seasoned in helping folks just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge Salt Lake county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in a region that is going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That only means you are paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. Getting a professional appraisal from Salt Lake Appraising Company is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender might make the decision 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 be be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inopportune from a cash flow viewpoint. Salt Lake Appraising Company can provide you with a professional appraisal that will help you reinstate your HELOC.
