Let 3D Appraisals LLC handle your appraisal needs

To many, an appraisal is simply one more thing on the break-sheet for a home purchase or refinance. While there are a growing number of automated home valuation methods that may seem cheaper than an appraisal, most lenders still want a local expert because the stakes are incredibly high. You might believe that obtaining a mortgage is the only basis for getting an appraisal, but there are more situations when the services of a licensed, independent real estate professional could be helpful.

PMI removal to reduce a mortgage payment

Private Mortgage Insurance, or PMI, is an additional insurance policy that most lenders ask buyers to buy when the amount being loaned to the home buyer is more than 80% of the actual value of the property. This extra payment is often bundled into the monthly mortgage payment and is soon forgotten. PMI isn't required when the leftover balance of the loan - whether through market appreciation or principal pay down - falls below the 80% level, making this very unfortunate. In fact, the Homeowners Protection Act (HPA) of 1998 was invoked by the United States Congress requiring lenders to remove the PMI installments when the loan-to-value ratio conditions have been met.

3D Appraisals LLC will produce a statement regarding the value of your home, and the price you paid for the home valuation can usually be offset in just a few months because you'll no longer be paying the PMI.

Settle a divorce with fewer hang-ups

A divorce can be an especially traumatic experience for both parties, and it is often further complicated by the strenuous decision of who maintains the property. Regardless of the circumstances, it's a good idea to get an appraisal from 3D Appraisals LLC so both parties are completely aware of the true market value of their home.

The parties will have a better idea of what price to set, if they wish to sell the home. And if a "buyout" is the chosen option, both parties will feel like they've received a fair evaluation.

Ascertain a fair and accurate valuation for estate liquidation

The loss of a loved one is a painful time in life, and settling an estate from a death, or probate, often calls for an appraisal to establish Fair Market Value for the real estate involved. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us with confidentiality, ensuring the maximum degree of discretion.

Most Americans do not have dedicated estate planners or executors to take care of these issues, unlike many wealthy individuals. A home or other property often makes up a disproportionate share of the total estate value, so knowing the true worth of the real estate at hand is of vital importance to ensuring disputing parties leave knowing they've received an honest deal.

Sell your home promptly — for an accurate price

Whether you choose to sell your home on your own or use the assistance of a real estate agent, a professional appraisal can help you make a more informed decision regarding your selling price. An appraiser has no vested interest in what amount the house sells for, apart from real estate agents. Our fees aren't a percentage of the sales price, but rather they are calculated on our efforts to finish the appraisal report.

On a daily basis, we determine the difference in value items like an additional bathroom or a kitchen remodel can make. And we're experts in knowing how long housesare on the market. So, getting a professional appraisal is a reliable way to decide what improvements will add value and what an applicable sales price is for your home so you don't come up short or have your house on the market an unnecessarily long time.
