Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Hall and Associates are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract many interested buyers. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is 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. We are experts in helping clients just like you rid themselves of undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging Hamilton county's assessment of your property

An appraisal from Hall and Associates is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?
