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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Floyd Knows Properties, LLC, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much you think 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 report than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is down below 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 are experts in helping people just like you delete unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. This means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The sooner 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. Getting an appraisal from Floyd Knows Properties, LLC is your perfect weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be difficult from a cash flow angle, but it can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Floyd Knows Properties, LLC can provide you with a professional appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just received a copy of your appraisal and you'd prefer to have an expert double-check it for verity or do you need a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a hurry, 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.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had in the past. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may desire to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
