Pre-listing Services/For Sale by OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value opinion than yours.Challenge Spalding County's assessment of your propertyYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your house is not appreciating as much as other properties nearby.

We are seasoned in helping people just like you rid yourselves of unneeded PMI insurance.Was your HELOC recently frozen?If your home is near 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.
