At Sampson Appraisals, LLC, we understand the particular needs of a homeowner after appraisal services. The appraisal process and reporting formats are relatively routine to our business clients like lenders, lawyers, and CPAs. But as a consumer,we'll be sure you get extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more fully understand what we do and how we document the results of our analysis.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your house because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Sampson Appraisals, LLC, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel 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". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At Sampson Appraisals, LLC, we're qualified in helping customers just like you delete unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a region that is going down or not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. This means you're paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from Sampson Appraisals, LLC is your number one weapon.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your home is close to a declining area, your lender may just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be annoying from a cash flow standpoint, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Sampson Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Sampson Appraisals, LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. Or, if you need it immediately, 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.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had done before. While usually requested by banks, you may need to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
