We at Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service understand the particular needs of a homeowner after appraisal services. Our customary business clients are used to the appraisal process and the standard "products" we deliver to them. Being a consumer that probably doesn't look at appraisals on a regular basis,we will give you extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more clearly understand what we do and how we report the results of our analysis.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service 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 interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service is experienced in helping people just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are paying more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal from Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is close to a declining area, your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow point of view, but it can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a seasoned expert double-check it for preciseness or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comparables in question. If you need it immediately, we'll provide 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? Quality Appraisers & Consulting Service can help you with that. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may desire to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
