As our valued client, we will provide you with extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to understand what we do and how we report our conclusions.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Jones Realty will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price -- not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

An attractive money saver for homeowners is to get 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 property, 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. We're experienced in helping homeowners just like you rid themselves of unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. That means you are paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Jones Realty is your best weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

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 house is in or near a declining area. This can be be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow angle. Jones Realty can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you like a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you desire a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for accuracy? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. 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.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have in your possession. While typically requested by banks, you may want to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
