For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Atlanta Residential Valuation Services LLC, are objective. We 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 an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers. It's something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. Atlanta Residential Valuation Services LLC is veterans in helping folks just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging Fulton county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. That only means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal report from Atlanta Residential Valuation Services LLC is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow viewpoint. Atlanta Residential Valuation Services LLC can provide you with an expert appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for verity, or do you desire a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. Or, if you're in a hurry, we can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? We can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may need to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
