Q: Can I be present during the home appraisal?

• <div><p>You can be present during a home appraisal, but it&rsquo;s best to stay out of the appraiser&rsquo;s way. Make yourself available, but don&rsquo;t engage or interrupt, and don&rsquo;t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.</p></div>

Q: How does a new deck or porch affect home value?

• <div><p>Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.</p></div>

Q: Who pays for a home appraisal?

• <div><p>The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You&rsquo;re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to buy a house for the first time?

• <div><p>Several government-backed lending programs can help first-time home buyers purchase a home with little money down. FHA, USDA, and VA loans are options for qualifying borrowers, though many conventional mortgage lenders will lower down payment rates to as low as 3 percent.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Do you have to pay property taxes on a shed with plumbing?

• <div><p>A shed that connects to water or electrical services is likely to be assessed for property taxes; however, tax assessments vary around the country. Since every state and local municipality differ regarding property taxes, you should contact your city to determine whether or not you&rsquo;re required to pay property taxes. Some states consider sheds or detached garages taxable if they have water, sewer, and electricity installed. </p></div>
