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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Mancari Appraisal Services, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your property will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price -- not just you saying how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value report than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to save money for homeowners is getting 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 amount is below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. Mancari Appraisal Services is veterans in helping folks just like you dismiss undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging New Castle county's assessment of your property

Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal report from Mancari Appraisal Services is your number one weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

Mancari Appraisal Services can help you reinstate your HELOC.
