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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a preferred money saver for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. S.R. Yates Real Estate, Inc. is experienced in helping folks just like you get rid of unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Parker county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better. An appraisal from S.R. Yates Real Estate, Inc. is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your property is close to a declining area, your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be annoying from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. S.R. Yates Real Estate, Inc. can provide you with a professional appraisal to help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you'd like to have a seasoned 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? S.R. Yates Real Estate, Inc. offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comparables. If you need it immediately, we'll provide 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? S.R. Yates Real Estate, Inc. can help with that too. While typically requested by banks, you may wish to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
