Let JWD Appraisal service LLC. attend to your appraisal needs

Thousands of people in New Jersey buy, sell or refinance their home every year. Most of these transactions consist of a simple line item for an appraisal. While there are a developing number of automated home valuation processes that might appear cheaper than an appraisal, the majority of lenders still want a local expert because the stakes are so high. Is getting a mortgage the only reason to get an appraisal? Are there more cases when the services of a certified, independent real estate professional might come in handy? Absolutely.

Contest your tax assessment in Monmouth County

It's probable you're paying too much in property taxes if you live in an area where property values have declined. Ad Valorem taxes are determined by a past assessment of your home, so if values are less than what they used to be in your neighborhood, you can appeal your assessment and save money. When building your case, an appraisal from us is your best evidence. At JWD Appraisal service LLC., we're equipped to assist you in disputing your tax assessment.

Get rid of PMI to lower your mortgage payment

Private Mortgage Insurance, or PMI, is an extra insurance policy that most lenders ask home owners to buy when the amount being loaned to the buyer is more than 80% of the actual value of the home. Seeing that extra payment is usually bundled into the monthly mortgage payment, it is often forgotten. PMI becomes unnecessary when the leftover balance of the loan - whether through market appreciation or principal pay down - decreases below the 80% mark, making this very unfortunate. In fact, the United States Congress implemented a law in 1998 (the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998) that requires lenders to do away with the PMI payments when the loan-to-value ratio conditions have been met.

If you'd like to eliminate PMI, JWD Appraisal service LLC. can give you a statement regarding the value of your home. The cost of the appraisal can generally be recovered in little time because you'll no longer be paying the PMI.

Settle a divorce with less stress

A divorce is often complicated by the difficult decision of who maintains the house, and it can be a particularly daunting experience for both parties. So both parties are completely aware of the true market value of their property, it's a good idea to get an appraisal from JWD Appraisal service LLC., regardless of the circumstances.

The parties will have a better idea of what price to set, if they wish to sell the home. And if a "buyout" is the chosen option, both parties will feel like they've received a fair evaluation.

Ascertain a fair and accurate valuation for estate liquidation

Losing a loved one is a difficult time in life, and settling an estate from a death, or probate, often calls for an appraisal to establish Fair Market Value for the real estate involved. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us with confidentiality, ensuring the maximum degree of discretion.

Unlike many wealthy individuals, most Americans don't have dedicated estate planners or executors to manage these issues. A home or other property often makes up a disproportionate share of the total estate value, so understanding the true worth of the real estate at hand is of significant importance to ensuring disputing parties walk away knowing they've gotten an honest deal.
