For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, 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. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers. It's something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're veterans in helping clients just like you delete unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that's declining. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from GZ Appraisal Services is your strongest weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area. This can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. GZ Appraisal Services can help you reinstate your HELOC.
