We at Shoreline Appraisals Inc understand the unique needs of a homeowner seeking appraisal services.

But as a consumer,you can expect extra guidance and explanations through the appraisal process to more fully understand what we do and how we document our conclusions.

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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. The professional appraisers at Shoreline Appraisals Inc will tell you what you need to know -- not just what you want to hear. We are objective. In addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your house will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer. The appraisal is something concrete to show the buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just you saying how much you think your home is worth. Potential buyers assume that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to a seasoned appraiser's value report than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is an attractive way to cut expenses for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your house. In most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We're veterans in helping consumers just like you abolish unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.

Challenge Tax Assessment

Lets say you live in an area that's declining -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. That means you're going to pay more taxes than you should. 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. An appraisal report from Shoreline Appraisals Inc is your perfect weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

Recently got a freeze your HELOC?

If your home is in a declining area, your lender might 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 negative on your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also inopportune from a cash flow angle. A professional appraisal from Shoreline Appraisals Inc can help you reinstate your HELOC.

We Also Offer Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services

Have you just accepted a copy of your appraisal and you'd wish to have a seasoned expert double-check it for preciseness or do you want a second opinion without the charge and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? In a field review we will go out and check the subject and comparables. If you need it ASAP, we'll provide desk review and verify as many facts as we can using online data sources as well as our own files.

Do you need a retrospective review of an appraisal? Shoreline Appraisals Inc can help you with that. Even though this is typically requested by banks, you may desire to employ this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your property.
