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. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need 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". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Elliott Real Estate Appraisals, we're qualified in helping people just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging Robertson county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That only means you're probably 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 things like this, the better. An expert appraisal from Elliott Real Estate Appraisals is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your property is in a declining area, your lender may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be annoying from a cash flow angle, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An appraisal from Elliott Real Estate Appraisals can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you like a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for preciseness? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. If you need it immediately, we'll provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had in the past. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may wish to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
