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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Bezdek Appraisals will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, not just how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to cut costs for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. At Bezdek Appraisals, we're veterans in helping clients just like you abolish unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in an area that is going down or not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours. That only 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 faster you take care of things like this, the better. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from Bezdek Appraisals is your perfect weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow viewpoint, and harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Bezdek Appraisals can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
