Pre-listing Services/For Sale by Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Redbud Appraisal Service, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Challenge Grant County's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. This means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting a professional appraisal from Redbud Appraisal Service, LLC is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A preferred way to cut costs 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 less than 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. At Redbud Appraisal Service, LLC, we're experienced in helping people just like you get rid of undesirable PMI insurance.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow standpoint. Redbud Appraisal Service, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you wish a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for precision? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comps. If you're 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.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? Redbud Appraisal Service, LLC can help you with that. While typically requested by banks, you may want to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
