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. 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 price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. This means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. An appraisal report from Yukawa Real Estate Appraisals, LLC is your perfect weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed 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 property. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. At Yukawa Real Estate Appraisals, LLC, we're qualified in helping consumers just like you rid yourselves of unnecessary PMI insurance.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow standpoint. Yukawa Real Estate Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for accuracy, or do you need a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Yukawa Real Estate Appraisals, LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in question 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.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can assist you. Although most appraisal reviews are commissioned by lenders, homeowners suspecting a prior appraisal wasn't above board are wise to get a second opinion.
