At Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC, we understand the individual needs of a consumer seeking appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much your home is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

A fashionable way to cut expenses for homeowners is getting 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 amount is less than 80% of the value of your house, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are veterans in helping people just like you rid themselves of unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that's declining or not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. This means you are probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC is your strongest weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in a declining area. This can be be unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint. Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned appraiser to double-check your appraisal for efficiency, or do you need a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a hurry, 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? Cherry Appraisal Company, LLC can help you with that. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may desire to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
