Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract many interested buyers. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A popular way to save money 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". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We're seasoned in helping clients just like you delete unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. 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. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from ALAN DANIEL is your best weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is close to a declining area. Not only can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. ALAN DANIEL can help you reinstate your HELOC.
