For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Colorado Appraisal Co, will be objective. We'll 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 attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract interested buyers. It's something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just how much your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is to get 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 is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We're seasoned in helping customers just like you dismiss unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Lets say you live in a local area that is going down -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you are going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better. An appraisal from Colorado Appraisal Co is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in or near a declining area. This can be be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow viewpoint. Colorado Appraisal Co can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you desire a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal?
