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

It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. The professional appraisers at Marrch Valuations LLC will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value conclusion than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A fashionable way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Once your mortgage loan 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. We are veterans in helping homeowners just like you get rid of undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging Oakland county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if you live in a local area that is going down or is not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. That means you're most likely paying more taxes than you should. The faster you take care of a matter like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. An expert appraisal from Marrch Valuations LLC is your strongest weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just might decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is in a declining area. Not only can this be troublesome from a cash flow viewpoint, but it can be negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Marrch Valuations LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with efficient appraisal.
