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

Since you have an emotional attachment to your home, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at MetriQ Valuation, 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 selling price so your home will attract interested buyers, a professional appraisal is very crucial as a negotiating tool once you have a likely buyer. It's something concrete to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value -- not just how much your house is worth. Potential buyers know you have an emotional attachment to your home and will be more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a preferred way to cut costs for homeowners. Once your mortgage loan amount is down below 80% of the value of your property, in most cases you can apply to the lender to have the PMI eliminated from your loan, which will make your monthly payments go down. MetriQ Valuation, LLC is experienced in helping people just like you rid themselves of unwanted and unneeded PMI insurance.

Challenging Brazos county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that is going down. That means you are going to pay more taxes than you should. Since your property assessment may likely go up again in the next period, the quicker you take care of a matter like this, the better off you'll be. An appraisal report from MetriQ Valuation, LLC is your perfect weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

Was your HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender might just decide to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is in or near a declining area. This can this be disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view, and damaging to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out. MetriQ Valuation, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.
