Need help determining the value of your house in or near Fairfax, Virginia ?
At Bruce W. Reyle & Company Real Estate Appraisers and Consultants, we understand the individual needs of a homeowner seeking appraisal services. While our usual 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)It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Bruce W. Reyle & Company Real Estate Appraisers and Consultants, are objective. We 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 home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It's something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value estimation than yours. Need to cancel PMI?Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a popular money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is less than 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 experienced in helping clients just like you abolish unneeded PMI insurance. Challenge property tax assessmentsYour local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in an area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other houses close by. That only means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal from Bruce W. Reyle & Company Real Estate Appraisers and Consultants is your number one weapon when challenging your property tax assessment. Recently got a freeze your HELOC?Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. This can be be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also unsuitable from a cash flow standpoint. Bruce W. Reyle & Company Real Estate Appraisers and Consultants can provide you with a professional appraisal that will help you reinstate your HELOC. Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you need a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. If you need it immediately, we'll provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files. Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? Bruce W. Reyle & Company Real Estate Appraisers and Consultants can help you with that.
