We at Crandall Appraisal Service understand the special needs of a consumer after appraisal services.

For Sale by Owner/Pre-Listing ServicesSince you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Crandall Appraisal Service will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. A professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value report than yours.Challenging property tax assessmentsYour local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. This only means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. 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. Getting an expert appraisal from Crandall Appraisal Service is your #1 weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.Need to remove PMI?PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A preferred way to cut costs for homeowners is getting 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 less than 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. Crandall Appraisal Service is seasoned in helping homeowners just like you remove unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.HELOC recently frozen?Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. Not only can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. A professional appraisal from Crandall Appraisal Service can help you reinstate your HELOC.We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review ServicesDo you need a veteran appraiser to double-check your appraisal for preciseness, or do you desire a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal?

Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can, using online data sources as well as our own files.We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had in the past.
