We at KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC understand the particular needs of a customer in need of appraisal services.

For Sale By Owner/Pre-Listing Services

It's very hard to be objective about your home because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC, 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 price to sell at so your house will attract many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very valuable as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It gives you something tangible to show your buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your property's value, not just you saying how much you think your house is worth. Potential buyers assume you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value estimation than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. At KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC, we're veterans in helping clients just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Lets say you live in an area that is declining -- your local tax assessor may have your home overvalued. This means you're 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. Getting an expert appraisal from KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC is your #1 weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

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. This can be be bad for your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also difficult from a cash flow point of view. KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Have you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you would wish to have a seasoned appraiser double-check it for verity or do you desire a second opinion without the cost and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? An appraiser from KP Upstate Appraisal Service, LLC can go out and check the subject and comparables in a field review. Or, if you're in a hurry, we can provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

We can also provide a retrospective review of any appraisal report you may have in your possession. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to use this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your home.
