We at Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc. understand the unique needs of a customer seeking appraisal services. Our customary business clients understand the appraisal process and the standard "products" we deliver to them.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc., 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 price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. An 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. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

A fashionable way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are experts in helping consumers just like you do away with unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a local area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other houses close to yours. This only means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier 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. An appraisal report from Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc. is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be annoying from a cash flow angle, and destructive to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Nick Stayanoff Appraisers, Inc. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with a professional appraisal.
