We at Beverly Lorimer understand the individual needs of a homeowner after appraisal services.

For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your home because of your emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Beverly Lorimer 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 crucial negotiating tool once you have an interested 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 your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just you saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value report than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We're experts in helping consumers just like you abolish unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This only means you are going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of a matter 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 appraisal from Beverly Lorimer is your perfect weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Beverly Lorimer can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

We Also Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Would you wish a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for preciseness? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comparables in question. If you need it immediately, we'll provide you with a desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? Beverly Lorimer can help with that too. While typically requested by banks, you may need to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
