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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at MWK Appraisals inc. are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. 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 house will attract many interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Challenge Broward County's assessment of your property

If you live in a local area that is declining or not appreciating as much as other houses close by, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you're 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. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from MWK Appraisals inc. is your perfect weapon.

Appraisals to remove PMI

An attractive way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At MWK Appraisals inc., we're qualified in helping homeowners just like you rid themselves of undesirable PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

Your lender just may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be inopportune from a cash flow point of view, but it can be destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. MWK Appraisals inc. can provide you with efficient appraisal that will help you reinstate your home equity line of credit.

Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you desire a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comparables. Or, if you need it immediately, we can 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 report you may have had in the past. Even though most review work is requested by lenders, homeowners suspecting a prior appraisal wasn't above board are prudent to get a second opinion.
