For Sale by Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Linday's Appraisals LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. 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 important as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value report than yours.Challenge Boone County's assessment of your propertyLet's say your home is not appreciating as much as other houses close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This only means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. A professional appraisal from Linday's Appraisals LLC is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.Need to remove PMI?PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular money saver 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 amount 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're veterans in helping folks just like you delete unnecessary PMI insurance.HELOC recently frozen?Your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in or near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow point of view. Linday's Appraisals LLC can provide you with an expert appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesHave you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a veteran appraiser double-check it for precision or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal?
