For-Sale-by-Owner (FSBO) / Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about 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 a very important negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's market value, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value report than yours.Challenge a property tax assessmentYour local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that is declining. That only means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Springs Appraisals (719) 637-2658 is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.Need to cancel PMI?Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut costs for homeowners.
