At Nesbit Appraisals, LLC, we understand the unique needs of a customer looking for appraisal services. While our usual business clients understand the appraisal process and standard reporting formats, you as a consumer will get extra service in the form of an explanation of the process and even special consumer-friendly reporting forms if the assignment allows for them.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Nesbit Appraisals, LLC will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It's something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value report than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A fashionable way to save money 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". Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're experts in helping homeowners just like you rid themselves of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. Getting an expert appraisal from Nesbit Appraisals, LLC is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your home is in or near a declining area, your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult from a cash flow angle, and negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Nesbit Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you would prefer to have a seasoned appraiser double-check it for verity or do you want a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Nesbit Appraisals, LLC offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comparables. If you need it in a rush, 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 usually requested by banks, you may want to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
