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

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Our professional appraisers at Steyskal Home Appraisal LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we'll tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract many interested buyers. It gives you something concrete to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's price, not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated 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 below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We're experts in helping consumers just like you do away with undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge Maricopa county's assessment of your property

If you live in a region that is going down or not appreciating as much as other properties nearby, your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you are most likely paying higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When challenging your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal from Steyskal Home Appraisal LLC is your number one weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

Your lender might just make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your property is near a declining area -- even if your specific property has not declined in value. This can be be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inopportune from a cash flow viewpoint. Steyskal Home Appraisal LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just been handed a copy of your appraisal and you would prefer to have an expert double-check it for efficiency or do you desire a second opinion without the added cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from Steyskal Home Appraisal LLC can go out and check the subject and comps in question in a field review. If you're in a hurry, 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.

Need a retrospective review of an appraisal? We can help with that too. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may want to exercise this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
