Interested buyers know that you have an emotional attachment to your house and will be much more likely to give credibility to an expert appraiser's value opinion than yours.

Need to remove PMI?

Getting the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) removed from your mortgage loan is a fashionable way to cut expenses for homeowners.

Hendrix/Baker Appraisal Svc is experienced in helping consumers just like you rid yourselves of unnecessary PMI insurance.

Challenge a property tax assessment

Your local tax assessor may have your house overvalued if you live in an area that is declining or is not appreciating as much as other homes close to yours.

Getting a professional appraisal from Hendrix/Baker Appraisal Svc is your number one weapon when contesting your property tax assessment.

HELOC recently frozen?
