Can I be present during the home appraisal?

Q: What if I can’t find any records of when my house was built?

• <div><p>If you can&rsquo;t find any records online, you&rsquo;ll need to contact your county clerk&rsquo;s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time. </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: Do basement bedrooms count on an appraisal?

• <div><p>Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they&rsquo;re fully legal, which means they have proper ventilation and points of egress, as defined by your local building code. Simply partitioning off a space for a bedroom in an otherwise unfinished basement that isn&rsquo;t a legal living space won&rsquo;t affect your appraisal value.</p></div>

Q: Can professionals appraise unique or non-traditional properties?
