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

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at YAH Real Estate Services are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It's something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just you saying how much you think your home 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 judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. 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 your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We are seasoned in helping people just like you abolish unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in an area that's going down. This only means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The faster you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal from YAH Real Estate Services is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area. Not only can this be difficult from a cash flow point of view, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. YAH Real Estate Services can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

We Also Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you desire a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? YAH Real Estate Services offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you need it in a rush, 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? YAH Real Estate Services can help with that too. While typically requested by banks, you may need to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
