For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your home because of your emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at The Welter Appraisal Group will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, and not just you saying how much your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value report than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We are experienced in helping customers just like you rid themselves of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other homes close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from The Welter Appraisal Group is your number one weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be inopportune from a cash flow viewpoint, and damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. The Welter Appraisal Group can help you reinstate your HELOC.
