It's very hard to be objective about your own home because you probably have an emotional attachment to it. Professional appraisers, like the ones at Daniel Thomas Solomon, are objective. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have a potential buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic price to sell at so your house will attract buyers. It gives you something concrete to show the buyer. The appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your home's value, not just how much your home is worth. Potential buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be far more likely to give credibility to an accomplished appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) canceled from your mortgage loan is a popular money saver for homeowners.

Daniel Thomas Solomon is experts in helping consumers just like you get rid of unneeded and unwanted PMI insurance.
