For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value -- not just how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to save money 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 your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We're seasoned in helping customers just like you dismiss unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in or near a declining area. This can this be inconvenient from a cash flow angle, and negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Newberry Appraisal Services, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for accuracy, or do you desire a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review I will go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you're in a rush, I can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as I can using online data sources as well as my own files.

I can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. While typically requested by banks, you may desire to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
