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

It's very hard to be objective about your home because of your emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Lumino Valuation Group, Inc., are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is very important as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your property will attract interested buyers. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and 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 qualified appraiser's value estimation than yours.

PMI Removal Appraisals

A popular way to save money for homeowners is getting the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. PMI stands for "Private Mortgage Insurance". Once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your home, in most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. We are qualified in helping consumers just like you get rid of unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Adams county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your house not appreciating as much as other homes nearby. That only means you are going to pay 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. An appraisal from Lumino Valuation Group, Inc. is your chief weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your house is near a declining area, your lender might choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) - even if your specific property has not declined in value. Not only can this be annoying from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be detrimental to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. An expert appraisal from Lumino Valuation Group, Inc. can help you reinstate your HELOC.
