For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) / Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you probably have an 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 very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, and not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. Nielson Appraisal is qualified in helping homeowners just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting a professional appraisal from Nielson Appraisal is your #1 weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Nielson Appraisal can help you reinstate your HELOC.
