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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Anglin Appraisal, 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 house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. 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 your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Anglin Appraisal is experts in helping consumers just like you rid themselves of undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging Snohomish county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your house is not appreciating as much as other properties close to yours. This means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The faster 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. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from Anglin Appraisal is your perfect weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

This can this be annoying from a cash flow angle, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Anglin Appraisal can provide you with efficient appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.
