Do you own a house in or near Kingsland? Do you need help determining the value of your real estate?
At Meeks Appraisals, LLC, we understand the special needs of a homeowner looking for appraisal services. While our typical business clients understand the appraisal process and standard reporting formats, you as a consumer will get extra customer service in the form of an explanation of the process and even special consumer-friendly reporting forms if the assignment allows for them. Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Meeks Appraisals, LLC, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours. Need to remove PMI?A popular way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We're qualified in helping consumers just like you rid themselves of unnecessary PMI insurance. Challenge a property tax assessmentLets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you are most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better. Getting an expert appraisal from Meeks Appraisals, LLC is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment. Was your HELOC recently frozen?Your lender might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in or near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult from a cash flow angle. Meeks Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC. We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesHave you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you would prefer to have a seasoned professional double-check it for efficiency or do you want a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Meeks Appraisals, LLC can go out and check the subject and comparables in question in a field review. Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide you with a 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 report you may have in your possession. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may wish to exploit this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house. |
