For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Hilberger 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 property will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value -- not just you saying how much your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is below 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're veterans in helping consumers just like you remove unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging Yavapai county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your house not appreciating as much as other houses close by. This means you're most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Hilberger Appraisals LLC is your perfect weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

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

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comparables in question in a field review. Or, if you need it ASAP, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can help with that too. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may wish to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
