We at Crowe Appraisals understand the particular needs of a consumer seeking appraisal services.

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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Crowe Appraisals, will be objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It's something concrete to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's value, and not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a fashionable money saver for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your house, 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. Crowe Appraisals is experienced in helping customers just like you get rid of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Oklahoma county's assessment of your property

Lets say your house is not appreciating as much as other properties close by -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you are paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. Getting an expert appraisal from Crowe Appraisals is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

If your property is close to a declining area, your lender just may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be difficult and inconvenient from a cash flow viewpoint, and detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Crowe Appraisals can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Provide Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been given a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have a seasoned professional double-check it for precision or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Crowe Appraisals offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps in question. If you need it 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.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have had in the past. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may need to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
