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 Cotrill Realty Group will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. It's something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

A popular money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're experts in helping people just like you rid themselves of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that's going down or is not appreciating as much as other properties nearby. That means you are going to pay more taxes than you should. 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. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Cotrill Realty Group is your #1 weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in or near a declining area. This can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow standpoint, and unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Cotrill Realty Group can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.
