At JHR Appraisals, we understand the individual needs of a homeowner in need of appraisal services. While our typical business clients understand the appraisal process and standard reporting formats, you as a consumer will get extra customer service in the form of an explanation of the process and even special consumer-friendly reporting forms if the assignment allows for them. Pre-listing Services/For Sale By OwnerIt's very hard to be objective about your own house because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at JHR Appraisals will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value estimation than yours. Need to remove PMI?Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to save money for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. JHR Appraisals is experts in helping people just like you do away with unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.
