At Appraisal Solutions Review & Consultation, we understand the unique needs of a customer after appraisal services.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Appraisal Solutions Review & Consultation are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Challenge Placer County's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a region that's going down or not appreciating as much as other houses nearby. This only means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Appraisal Solutions Review & Consultation is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We're seasoned in helping people just like you remove unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in a declining area. This can be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint, and harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisal Solutions Review & Consultation can provide you with an expert appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you would like to have an expert double-check it for precision or do you need a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Appraisal Solutions Review & Consultation offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you're in a rush, we can provide 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 in your possession. While typically requested by banks, you may need to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
