For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. A professional appraiser is objective and will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a professional appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

An attractive way to save money 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 is down below 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. Roadrunner Appraisals, LLC is experienced in helping customers just like you rid themselves of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenge property tax assessments

If you live in an area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the sooner you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an expert appraisal from Roadrunner Appraisals, LLC is your chief weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

This can be be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also unsuitable from a cash flow standpoint. An expert appraisal from Roadrunner Appraisals, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.
