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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at Jenkins Valuation, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. In addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers, a professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. The appraisal is something tangible to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Appraisals to cancel PMI

An attractive money saver for homeowners is getting the PMI removed 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 is less than 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. Jenkins Valuation, LLC is seasoned in helping consumers just like you rid yourselves of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Utah county's assessment of your property

Lets say you live in an area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This only means you are paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. A professional appraisal from Jenkins Valuation, LLC is your best weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Your lender might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can this be troublesome from a cash flow point of view, and unfavorable to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Jenkins Valuation, LLC can help you reinstate your home equity line of credit with an expert appraisal.
