For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Tri-County Appraisal Group, Inc. will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is a very valuable 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 buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to cut costs for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. At Tri-County Appraisal Group, Inc., we're qualified in helping people just like you abolish undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that is going down. That means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Tri-County Appraisal Group, Inc. is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow standpoint. Tri-County Appraisal Group, Inc. can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you need a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Tri-County Appraisal Group, Inc. offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. If you need it immediately, we'll provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had done before. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
