For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) / Pre-Listing ServicesIt's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Delux Appraisals, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value judgement than yours. Need to cancel PMI?A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is down 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. We're veterans in helping customers just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.
