At Robert Yizzi Appraisals, we understand the particular needs of a consumer seeking appraisal services.

Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

It's very hard to be objective about your house because you most likely have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Robert Yizzi Appraisals, are objective. We will 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 many interested buyers, a professional appraisal is a very valuable negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer. It's something tangible to show your buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, and not just how much your house is worth. Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an experienced appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Appraisals to remove PMI

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a fashionable money saver for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your property. In most cases you can apply to a lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan. We are experts in helping clients just like you remove undesirable PMI insurance.

Challenging Bucks county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in a region that's declining or not appreciating as much as other properties close by. That only means you're probably paying more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the earlier you take care of things like this, the better off you'll be. When contesting your property tax assessment, getting an appraisal from Robert Yizzi Appraisals is your number one weapon.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender may just choose to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your home is near a declining area. Not only can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow angle, but it can be damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. Robert Yizzi Appraisals can provide you with a professional appraisal that will help you reinstate your HELOC.

Need Field and Desktop Appraisal Review Services?

Do you need an expert to double-check your appraisal for precision, or do you need a second opinion without the expense and delay of waiting for a whole new appraisal? Robert Yizzi Appraisals offers field reviews where we'll go out and check the subject and comps. Or, if you need it ASAP, 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 you with a a retrospective review of any appraisal you may have had done before. While usually requested by banks, you may wish to utilize this service if you suspect mortgage fraud related to your house.
