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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Appraisals Northwest 509-951-0182 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 important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract buyers. It's something concrete to show your 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 that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a fashionable money saver for homeowners. 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 your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are experts in helping consumers just like you do away with unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your house is not appreciating as much as other homes close by. That means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal report from Appraisals Northwest 509-951-0182 is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your home is in or near a declining area, your lender might make the decision 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 disadvantageous from a cash flow angle, but it can be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisals Northwest 509-951-0182 can provide you with an expert appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you desire a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Appraisals Northwest 509-951-0182 can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. If you need it in a rush, 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.
