Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner (FSBO)It's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Gold Coast Valuations, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price -- not just how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value conclusion than yours. Need to cancel PMI?A preferred money saver for homeowners is to get the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. At Gold Coast Valuations, we're experienced in helping clients just like you rid themselves of undesirable PMI insurance.
