At Boling Real Estate Services, we understand the individual needs of a customer in need of appraisal services.

For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Boling Real Estate Services, will be objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. 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 valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're qualified in helping clients just like you delete undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other houses close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. 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. A professional appraisal from Boling Real Estate Services is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is close to a declining area, your lender may 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 unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint, and harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Boling Real Estate Services can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you want a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Boling Real Estate Services offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you're in a rush, 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 report? Boling Real Estate Services can help you with that. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may desire to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
