Pre-listing Services/For Sale By Owner

Since you have an emotional attachment to your house, it's often very hard to be objective about it. Our professional appraisers at DK Home Appraisals and Sales, LLC are objective. We won't just tell you what you want to hear, we will tell you what you need to know. A professional appraisal is a very important negotiating tool once you have an interested buyer, in addition to helping you set a realistic selling price so your home will attract interested buyers. The appraisal is something tangible to show your buyer. An appraisal is an independent third party's opinion of your house's price -- not just you saying how much 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 an experienced appraiser's value judgement than yours.

Need to cancel PMI?

PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance. A popular way to cut costs for homeowners is getting the PMI removed from their mortgage loan, thus saving them money on their monthly payments. Your monthly payments will go down once your mortgage loan is less than 80% of the value of your home. In most cases you can apply to your lender to have the PMI removed from your loan. We are qualified in helping clients just like you dismiss unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge Dallas county's assessment of your property

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if your home is not appreciating as much as other properties close to yours. This only means you're 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 off you'll be. Getting an expert appraisal from DK Home Appraisals and Sales, LLC is your strongest weapon when challenging your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?

Even if your specific property has not declined in value, your lender just may make the decision to automatically freeze your home equity line of credit (HELOC) if your house is close to a declining area. This can be be harmful to your credit score since it may appear as though that credit line is maxed out, and also disadvantageous from a cash flow point of view. DK Home Appraisals and Sales, LLC can help you reinstate your HELOC.
