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

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Herriman, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers. It's something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

A preferred money saver 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 less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are veterans in helping clients just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other properties nearby. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better. Getting an appraisal from Herriman, LLC is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area. This can be be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult from a cash flow point of view. Herriman, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you wish a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you desire a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for accuracy?

Or, if you need it in a rush, we can provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.
