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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your 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 very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other properties close by. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. An appraisal report from King Valuations, Inc. is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive 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 home. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We're experts in helping clients just like you rid themselves of unnecessary PMI insurance.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is close to a declining area, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can 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 viewpoint. King Valuations, Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for accuracy, or do you want a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. Or, if you're in a hurry, we can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can, using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had done before. While typically requested by banks, you may wish to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
