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

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a fashionable money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're veterans in helping consumers just like you dismiss unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Orange 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 nearby. That only means you're most likely paying more taxes than you should. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an appraisal from Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. is your best 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 property is close to a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also annoying from a cash flow viewpoint. Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for verity, or do you want a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Greater Orlando Appraisal Assoc., Inc. can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a hurry, we'll provide 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 you may have had done before. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may want to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
