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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Blum Appraisal Service LLC 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 valuable negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value -- not just you saying how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Challenge Bexar County's assessment of your property

Let's say you live in a local area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This 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. A professional appraisal from Blum Appraisal Service LLC is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Appraisals to remove PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. Blum Appraisal Service LLC is qualified in helping folks just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

If your property is close to 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 disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view, but it can be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Blum Appraisal Service LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you prefer a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a professional to double-check your appraisal for efficiency? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. 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? Blum Appraisal Service LLC can help you with that. Although most appraisal reviews are commissioned by lenders for quality control, homeowners suspecting they've been the victim of mortgage fraud are wise to invest in a second opinion.
