Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. A professional appraiser is objective and 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 house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are qualified in helping homeowners just like you delete unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. This only means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal from Diversified Real Estate Activities Inc. (805) 388-5507 is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is close to a declining area, your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be inopportune from a cash flow standpoint, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Diversified Real Estate Activities Inc. (805) 388-5507 can help you reinstate your HELOC.
