For Sale By Owner (FSBO)/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Oleson Real Estate Appraisers, Inc., will be objective. We 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 attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just you saying how much you think your house 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 judgement than yours. PMI Removal AppraisalsPMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. 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 canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At Oleson Real Estate Appraisers, Inc., we're experts in helping consumers just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.
