For Sale by Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably 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. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a region that's going down or not appreciating as much as other properties close by. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of things like this, the better. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Digital Valuation Solutions is your #1 weapon.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to cut costs for homeowners. 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 canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're veterans in helping customers just like you dismiss unnecessary PMI insurance.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your home is close to a declining area, your lender may just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Digital Valuation Solutions can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you like a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a seasoned appraiser to double-check your appraisal for accuracy? An appraiser from Digital Valuation Solutions can go out and check the subject and comparables in question in a field review. 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? Digital Valuation Solutions can help you with that. Even though most review work is requested by lenders for quality control, homeowners that have reason to believe they've been the victim of mortgage fraud are wise to invest in a second opinion.
