We at Appraisal Solutions Group, LLC. understand the individual needs of a customer seeking appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale by Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Appraisal Solutions Group, LLC., will be 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 interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's market value, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Challenging Baltimore County's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your house not appreciating as much as other houses nearby. 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 things like this, the better. An appraisal report from Appraisal Solutions Group, LLC. is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to save money for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping clients just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

If your house is near a declining area, your lender just may make the decision 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 inopportune from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Appraisal Solutions Group, LLC. can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for verity, or do you want a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Appraisal Solutions Group, LLC. can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. If you're in a rush, we'll provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can, using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide you with a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. Even though most appraisal reviews are requested by lenders for quality control, homeowners that have reason to believe a prior appraisal wasn't above board are prudent to invest in a second opinion.
