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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. It's something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We are qualified in helping homeowners just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby -- 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 earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from CMS Appraisal Group, LLC. is your strongest weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender may just make the decision 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 be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view. An appraisal from CMS Appraisal Group, LLC. can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you prefer a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for efficiency? We can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a hurry, we'll 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? CMS Appraisal Group, LLC. can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may wish to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
