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 very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

An attractive money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're qualified in helping consumers just like you do away with unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging Bexar county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that is going down. This only means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of a matter like this, the better. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Alamo Appraisal, LLC is your strongest weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is near a declining area, your lender may just 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 disadvantageous from a cash flow angle, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Alamo Appraisal, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.
