At Progressive Appraisals, LLC., we understand the unique needs of a consumer in need of appraisal services.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Progressive Appraisals, LLC., are objective. We'll 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 house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, and not just how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a qualified appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. Progressive Appraisals, LLC. is experienced in helping people just like you abolish undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a region that's going down or is not appreciating as much as other homes close by. This only means you are most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. Getting an appraisal from Progressive Appraisals, LLC. is your best weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your property is close to a declining area, your lender may 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 difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint, and damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Progressive Appraisals, LLC. can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you'd like to have a veteran appraiser double-check it for verity or do you desire a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? We can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. If you need it ASAP, we'll provide 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? Progressive Appraisals, LLC. can help with that too. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
