FAQs
What is a note appraisal?
A note appraisal reflects the current market value of your payments similar to what a real estate appraisal provides for real property. Frequently referred to as a “quote” it shows what your future payments are worth in cash dollars today. We recommend you have your note evaluated once a year.
How is the value of a note determined?
The value of a note is affected by the down payment, interest rate, payment amount, and term as well as the buyer’s credit rating and payment history. The type, condition, and value of the property also impact the value of your note.
The time value of money, which makes payments due now more valuable than payments due in 20 to 30 years, also plays a factor in the evaluation process. Generally, due to inflation, money in your pocket today is worth more now than later. All of these factors will be taken into consideration in determining the current value of your note.
