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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Northeast Valuation Group will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping people just like you remove unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in a region that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you're paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Northeast Valuation Group is your chief weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is close to a declining area. This can be be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint. A professional appraisal from Northeast Valuation Group can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just gotten a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a seasoned professional double-check it for efficiency or do you want a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Northeast Valuation Group 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.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can help with that too. While typically requested by banks, you may need to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
