We at Keys Appraisal Service understand the unique needs of a consumer in need of appraisal services. Our typical business clients get the appraisal process and the customary documents we provide.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Keys Appraisal Service, will be 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 price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value judgement than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. An attractive way to cut expenses 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 a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. Keys Appraisal Service is veterans in helping consumers just like you dismiss undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in a region that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. 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 off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An appraisal from Keys Appraisal Service is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your home is in or near a declining area, your lender may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow angle, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Keys Appraisal Service can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you need a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Keys Appraisal Service offers field reviews where we go out and check the subject and comparables in question. Or, if you need it immediately, 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. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may wish to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
