Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Comp One Appraisal Services are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're experts in helping folks just like you rid themselves of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Dekalb county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that is going down. That means you're most likely paying 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. A professional appraisal from Comp One Appraisal Services is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is in a declining area, your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value.

Comp One Appraisal Services can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
