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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Nordal & Associates Real Estate Appraisal will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much you think 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 professional appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to cut expenses for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping homeowners just like you abolish unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

Lets say you live in a region that is going down -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. Getting an appraisal from Nordal & Associates Real Estate Appraisal is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area. Not only can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow point of view, but it can be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Nordal & Associates Real Estate Appraisal can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
