For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

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 Navarre and Associates, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A preferred way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. We are veterans in helping folks just like you rid themselves of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Lehigh county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. Getting an appraisal report from Navarre and Associates is your perfect weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your property is in 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 be be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also unsuitable from a cash flow standpoint. Navarre and Associates can provide you with efficient appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you wish a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you desire a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for precision? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in question in a field review. 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.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? Navarre and Associates can help you with that. While typically requested by banks, you may need to exploit this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
