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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at JGI Valuations, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's price -- not just you saying how much your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut expenses for homeowners is to get the PMI eliminated from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is less than 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. JGI Valuations is experts in helping folks just like you dismiss unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Miami-Dade county's assessment of your property

Lets say your home is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This means you're going to pay higher taxes than you should be paying. The earlier you take care of things like this, the better, since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting a professional appraisal from JGI Valuations is your perfect weapon.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your home is in or near a declining area, your lender just may make the decision 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 inconvenient from a cash flow standpoint, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. JGI Valuations can help you reinstate your HELOC.
