For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your own house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at UAT South, 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 price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to save money for homeowners is to get the PMI removed 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 house. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We are experts in helping folks just like you abolish unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Lane county's assessment of your property

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other properties close by -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. That only means you are going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from UAT South, LLC is your chief weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender might just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in or near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult from a cash flow viewpoint, and negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. UAT South, LLC can provide you with an expert appraisal that will help you reinstate your HELOC.

Do You Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need a professional to double-check your appraisal for efficiency, or do you want a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comparables. Or, if you're in a hurry, 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.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal report? We can help with that too. Even though this is usually requested by banks, you may wish to take advantage of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
