I am a seasoned professional that assists all clients with obtaining a mortgage for whether it be to buy or refinance a home. If there is a delay due to credit or personal issues we can discuss those and set a plan for the future. "Being a mortgage broker gives me the opportunity to help people through a challenging financial process, making it as understandable and anxiety-free as possible. I enjoy educating my clients and helping them feel confident in the financial decisions they are making for their families and their futures. Getting a family into their dream home or opening up a financial opportunity for them, is very rewarding"

"Me Goldfarb was professional, returned my calls in a timely manner, and answered all of my questions, I would hire him again."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

While a single shelf here and there doesn’t add value to your home, a built-in bookcase can increase your home’s value under the right circumstances. Not every built-in bookcase works in your favor here—those built from high-quality materials tend to provide a better ROI. If you’re looking for your bookcase to work for your home’s value, consider having a professional build it with luxury hardwood.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Typically during transactions or refinancing, or whenever significant improvements are made.
