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. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Lincoln Appraisal Group, will be objective. We 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 property will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much you think your house 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 report than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

An attractive way to cut costs 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". Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home, 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're seasoned in helping consumers just like you rid themselves of unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you are most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an expert appraisal from Lincoln Appraisal Group is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your property is near a declining area, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be inopportune 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. Lincoln Appraisal Group can provide you with efficient appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.
