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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your own house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at DANIEL I KANDEL, are objective. We'll tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a crucial negotiating tool once you have an attainable buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your home will attract buyers. It gives you something tangible to show the buyer. It's an independent third party's opinion of your house's price, and not just you saying how much your home is worth. Interested buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value assessment than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) eliminated from your mortgage loan is a popular money saver for homeowners. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is down below 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI canceled from your loan. DANIEL I KANDEL is seasoned in helping people just like you abolish unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenging a property tax assessment

Lets say you live in a local area that's going down -- your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued. This only means you are probably paying higher taxes than you should be paying. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the faster you take care of things like this, the better. Getting an expert appraisal from DANIEL I KANDEL is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

If your house is in or near a declining area, your lender may decide 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 unsuitable from a cash flow viewpoint. DANIEL I KANDEL can help you reinstate your HELOC.
