Pre-listing Services/For Sale by Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your home because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Jamestown C.A.R.E.S. LLC, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's market value, not just how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Challenge property tax assessments

Let's say your house is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're going to pay 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 a matter like this, the better. An appraisal from Jamestown C.A.R.E.S. LLC is your perfect weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Jamestown C.A.R.E.S. LLC is experienced in helping homeowners just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Recently got a freeze to your HELOC?

If your house is near a declining area, your lender might just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be annoying from a cash flow angle, and bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An efficient appraisal from Jamestown C.A.R.E.S. LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for accuracy, or do you desire a second opinion without the added expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Jamestown C.A.R.E.S. LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in a field review. If you're in a rush, we'll provide you with a 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? We can assist you. While typically requested by banks, you may want to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
