We at Boldrick Appraisal understand the unique needs of a consumer after appraisal services. Our usual business clients get the appraisal process and the standard documents we provide.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale by Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Boldrick Appraisal are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable 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 market value, not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in an area that's declining or not appreciating as much as other properties close by. That only means you're most likely paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things 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 an appraisal report from Boldrick Appraisal is your #1 weapon.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

A fashionable money saver 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 is less than 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are qualified in helping consumers just like you get rid of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your home is close to a declining area, your lender may just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inopportune from a cash flow angle. Boldrick Appraisal can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you like a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you desire a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for verity? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comparables. If you need it in a rush, we'll provide you with a 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? We can assist you. Although most review work is requested by lenders, homeowners suspecting a prior appraisal wasn't above board are prudent to invest in a second opinion.
