Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you most likely have an 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 selling price so your house will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are seasoned in helping homeowners just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in a local area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you are 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 off you'll be. Getting an expert appraisal from Anchorlink Inc is your perfect weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also troublesome from a cash flow viewpoint. Anchorlink Inc can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you like a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a seasoned appraiser to double-check your appraisal for accuracy? Anchorlink Inc offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comps in question. Or, if you need it ASAP, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? We can help with that too. While typically requested by banks, you may want to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
