We at KMR Appraisal Services LLC understand the unique needs of a customer looking for appraisal services. The appraisal process and reporting formats are relatively routine to our business clients like banks, attorneys, and CPAs. But as a general consumer,you can expect extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more fully understand what we do and how we present our conclusions. For Sale By Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesIt's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to 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 valuable as a 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 your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value estimation than yours. PMI Removal AppraisalsPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home, 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 experienced in helping people just like you abolish undesirable PMI insurance. Challenge property tax assessmentsLets say your home is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from KMR Appraisal Services LLC is your perfect weapon. Was your HELOC recently frozen?Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area. This can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from KMR Appraisal Services LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

If you need it immediately, 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.
