We at Gold Medal Marketing, Inc. understand the special needs of a consumer seeking appraisal services. Our usual business clients get the appraisal process and the standard reporting formats. But as a consumer,we will provide you with extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to better understand what we do and how we document our conclusions.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because of your emotional attachment to it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. An 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 you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a preferred money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your property, 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 are qualified in helping customers just like you dismiss unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

If you live in an area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other homes close by, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The sooner you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Gold Medal Marketing, Inc. is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in or near a declining area. Not only can this be troublesome from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Gold Medal Marketing, Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned expert to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you need a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comps in question. Or, if you need it in a rush, we can 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 report? Gold Medal Marketing, Inc. can help you with that. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may want to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
