Reasons someone would hire We Florida, LLC

 To many, an appraisal just looks like a line item on the break-sheet for a home sale or refinance. Even though there are an increasing number of automated home valuation methods that may appear to be more prudent than an appraisal, the majority of lenders still want a local expert because the stakes are so high. You might think that obtaining a mortgage is the only reason to get an appraisal, but there are more instances when the services of a certified, independent real estate professional might come in handy.

How can you get rid of PMI to lower your mortgage payment?

Private Mortgage Insurance, or PMI, is an additional insurance plan that many lenders ask buyers to buy when the amount being loaned to the home buyer is more than 80% of the actual value of the property. More often than not, this added payment is folded into the monthly mortgage payment and is quickly forgotten. This is unfavorable because PMI isn't necessary when the remainder of the loan - whether through market appreciation or principal pay down - decreases below the 80% level. In fact, the United States Congress invoked a law in 1998 (the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998) that requires lenders to remove the PMI installments when the loan-to-value ratio conditions have been met.

If you'd like to get rid of PMI, We Florida, LLC will produce a statement regarding the value of your home. The expense of the home valuation can often be offset in little time because you'll no longer be paying the PMI.

Accurate and fair estate liquidation with help from We Florida, LLCSettling an estate

The death of a loved one is a hard time in life, and settling an estate from a death, or probate, often requires an appraisal to establish Market Value for the real estate involved. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us with confidentiality, ensuring the maximum degree of discretion.

Most Americans don't have dedicated estate planners or executors to take care of these issues, unlike wealthy individuals. And since a home or other property often makes up a disproportionate share of the total estate value, knowing the true value of the real estate at hand is of essential importance to ensuring disputing parties leave knowing they've received an honest deal.

A professional appraisal can help you make a more informed decision when determining your selling price, whether you choose to sell your home on your own or with the help of a real estate agent.

On a daily basis, we analyze the difference in value items like an additional bathroom or a kitchen remodel can make. And we're experts in knowing how long properties are on the market.
