WHY GET AN APPRAISAL?
You want the best in professional service, courtesy, and quality
Here are a few situations where you may need an appraisal as a homeowner:
- Refinancing a piece of property you own
- Applying for a home equity loan
- Listing your property for sale
- Fighting your tax assessment
- Remove that extra PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) payment you are making every month
- Want a true market value of your home versus what a real estate agent wants to sell your home for
HOW WE CAN HELP
REFINANCE / HOME EQUITY
Request Green Mountain Valuations if your lender asks you for YOUR choice of appraisal firms. More than likely we are already on their “approved list”, and if not we will quickly provide you with the necessary documentation to become approved.
FOR-SALE-BY-OWNER / PRE-LISTING SERVICES
At Green Mountain Valuations, we are objective and will tell you what you need to know about the value of your house, even if it is not what you want to hear. We help you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers.
An appraisal is a powerful negotiation tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. It’s an independent, third party’s opinion of your home’s value, and not just you or a real estate agent saying how much your home is worth.
PRIVATE MORTGAGE INSURANCE FEE REMOVAL APPRAISALS
Save money as a homeowner by getting your PMI removed from your mortgage loan. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experienced in helping folks just like you rid themselves of unneeded PMI insurance.
