For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Robert Jorgenson Appraising, will be 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 an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Robert Jorgenson Appraising is qualified in helping homeowners just like you abolish unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that's going down. That only means you're probably paying 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 challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Robert Jorgenson Appraising is your number one weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender 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 be be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint. Robert Jorgenson Appraising can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you'd like to have a seasoned appraiser double-check it for preciseness or do you desire a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comparables. If you need it ASAP, we'll 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? Robert Jorgenson Appraising can help with that too. While usually requested by banks, you may need to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
