For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Kenny G. Adams, SRA 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 valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is to get 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 is less than 80% of the value of your house, 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 Kenny G. Adams, SRA, we're seasoned in helping customers just like you abolish undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Lets say you live in a region that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That means you are most likely paying more taxes than you should. The quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Kenny G. Adams, SRA is your best weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in a declining area. This can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow point of view, and negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An appraisal from Kenny G. Adams, SRA can help you reinstate your HELOC.
