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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Northern Arizona Appraisal, Inc. are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a preferred money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your property, 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. At Northern Arizona Appraisal, Inc., we're veterans in helping people just like you rid themselves of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

If you live in a local area that is declining or not appreciating as much as other houses close by, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better. Getting an appraisal from Northern Arizona Appraisal, Inc. is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your house is in a declining area, your lender might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult from a cash flow viewpoint, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Northern Arizona Appraisal, Inc. can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you want a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We 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 report? Northern Arizona Appraisal, Inc. can help with that too. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may need to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
