Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to save money 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 the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc., we're experienced in helping customers just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging property tax assessments

If you live in an area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours, your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an expert appraisal from Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.
