"PS Appraisal & Consulting was recommended through HomeAdvisor. One never knows how reliable reviews and recommendations are, but in this case I can personally verify the excellent ratings of PS Appraisals. Pattee was responsive, prompt, courteous, and professional. She completed the site visit and appraisal in less than a week. The methodology and rationale for the valuation of the property were welll-documented and understandable. Her fee was reasonable and there were no surprises. Highly recommended."

"I have used Dougs services for about 2 decades now. He is very responsive, you can expect the appraisal in 7 days or less and his communication with all parties is exemplary. He has never let me down in all those years. When I need an experienced appraiser, Doug is top of the mind each and every time. Lorrie I."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Yes, installing a tennis court can be a worthwhile home improvement project that adds value to your property. The potential increase in value can range from $20,000 to $150,000, and in some cases, the return on investment can cover more than 60% of the installation cost. However, the impact on value heavily depends on the size of your property. For homes with multiple acres, a tennis court is often a valuable amenity. In contrast, for homes on smaller lots, installing a court can decrease the property's value because it consumes a significant portion of the usable yard space. It's crucial to consider your property size and the remaining usable yard before proceeding.

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.
