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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Home Run Appraisals, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract many interested 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 you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular way to save money for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Home Run Appraisals is experienced in helping folks just like you delete unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Northampton county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that's going down. That means you're paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. A professional appraisal from Home Run Appraisals is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your property is in a declining area, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult from a cash flow viewpoint, and damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Home Run Appraisals can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.
