We at Andrew Turner, Appraiser understand the unique needs of a homeowner seeking appraisal services. The appraisal process and reporting formats are relatively routine to our business clients like lenders, lawyers, and accountants. Being a person not in the real estate industry that ordinarily doesn't look at appraisals every day,we will provide you with extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to understand what we do and how we document our findings.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just 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 an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to save money for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experienced in helping clients just like you rid themselves of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other houses close by. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. The earlier 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 an appraisal from Andrew Turner, Appraiser is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area. This can this be inopportune from a cash flow point of view, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Andrew Turner, Appraiser can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Have you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you would wish to have a veteran appraiser double-check it for accuracy or do you need a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal?

If you need it in a rush, we'll 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 you with a a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had done before. While typically requested by banks, you may want to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
