We at Rocky Mountain Appraisal Network understand the particular needs of a homeowner in need of appraisal services. Our regular business clients get the appraisal process and the usual "products" we deliver to them. But as a consumer,you'll receive extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more fully understand what we do and how we report the results of our analysis.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, 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. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract buyers. It's something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

An attractive money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI canceled from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. Rocky Mountain Appraisal Network is experienced in helping folks just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Douglas county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued if your house is not appreciating as much as other houses close by. That means you're probably 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. An appraisal from Rocky Mountain Appraisal Network is your chief weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender just may decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is in a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow viewpoint. Rocky Mountain Appraisal Network can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Would you like a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Or do you want a seasoned professional to double-check your appraisal for accuracy? In a field review we'll go out and check the subject and comparables in question. Or, if you need it immediately, we can provide 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 you may have had in the past. While usually requested by banks, you may need to make use of this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
