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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Pilot Appraisal will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and not just 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 a professional appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a popular way to save money for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We are qualified in helping consumers just like you delete unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge Macomb county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in a local area that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you are going to pay 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 off you'll be. Getting an expert appraisal from Pilot Appraisal is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. This can be be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow standpoint. Pilot Appraisal can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.
