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. Professional appraisers, like the ones at TnT Appraisal Serivces, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value -- not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Challenge a property tax assessment

If you live in a local area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. An appraisal report from TnT Appraisal Serivces is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

PMI Removal Appraisals

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. TnT Appraisal Serivces is experienced in helping clients just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is in or 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. This can be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow angle. TnT Appraisal Serivces can provide you with efficient appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for accuracy, or do you want a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from TnT Appraisal Serivces can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. Or, if you're in a hurry, we can 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? TnT Appraisal Serivces can help you with that. While typically requested by banks, you may desire to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
