Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Larry Jr Appraisals, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show your 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. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut expenses for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your house, 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 Larry Jr Appraisals, we're veterans in helping clients just like you dismiss unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging Tom Green county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. Getting a professional appraisal from Larry Jr Appraisals is your perfect weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is in or near a declining area, your lender might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also annoying from a cash flow viewpoint. Larry Jr Appraisals can provide you with an expert appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Have you just gotten a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have a seasoned professional double-check it for efficiency or do you want a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you're in a rush, we can 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 you with a a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may desire to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
