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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, 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. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible 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 home 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 accomplished appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Challenging Hunt County's assessment of your property

If you live in a local area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other houses nearby, your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. The faster you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Parker Real Estate & Appraisal is your #1 weapon.

PMI Removal Appraisals

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular way to save money for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are veterans in helping people just like you get rid of unneeded PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

Your lender just might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inopportune from a cash flow point of view. An appraisal from Parker Real Estate & Appraisal can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you want a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Parker Real Estate & Appraisal offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. Or, if you need it immediately, 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 report? Parker Real Estate & Appraisal can help you with that. Even though most review work is commissioned by lenders for quality control, homeowners suspecting a prior appraisal wasn't above board are wise to get a second opinion.
