We at Herrin Appraisal Company understand the special needs of a consumer after appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Herrin Appraisal Company are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A preferred money saver 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". Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your house, 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're experts in helping people just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other houses close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're most likely paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal from Herrin Appraisal Company is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your home is near a declining area, your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be troublesome from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Herrin Appraisal Company can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have a professional double-check it for efficiency or do you need a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Herrin Appraisal Company offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps. If you need it ASAP, we'll provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? Herrin Appraisal Company can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may desire to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
