For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. A professional appraiser is objective and will 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 buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is an attractive money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Olympic Property Appraisals, LLC is experienced in helping customers just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other houses close by -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are probably paying more taxes than you should. The earlier 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. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Olympic Property Appraisals, LLC is your #1 weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your property is near a declining area, your lender might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be troublesome from a cash flow standpoint, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Olympic Property Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just gotten a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have a veteran appraiser double-check it for preciseness or do you want a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Olympic Property Appraisals, LLC offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps. 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 report? Olympic Property Appraisals, LLC can help you with that. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may desire to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
