Customers say: True professional

"This was an appraisal of a older condominium unit in a gated Southern California beach community for a trust administration. Unusual in that Penny did not have access to interior of the unit she had to appraise. She was very thorough in her research of the complex, and inspected a similar unit that was on the market, in addition to reviewing prior sales records and condition of the unit she appraised. Her comps were very good and it was clear that she'd done her due diligence to discern the appropriate sales, given the three different areas of buildout in the complex. She made a balanced and fair valuation of the property which was important for me to have as the Trustee, and reported on her considerations in good detail."

Customers say: Quality work

"Excellent Home Appraisal Experience! Review: I recently had the pleasure of working with a fantastic home appraisal service for a home in Diamond Bar, CA. From start to finish, the team was professional, thorough, and provided exceptional service. Being on another coast, choosing an Appraiser was daunting. The final appraisal report was comprehensive and well-documented, providing me with a clear understanding of my home's value. Not only did the appraisal process go smoothly, but the team also demonstrated excellent communication skills. I highly recommend this home appraisal service for anyone in need of a reliable and professional assessment of their property. Their expertise and attention to detail truly set them apart. Thank you to the entire appraisal team for their outstanding service. Kind regards, Brody D"

"Mike Anderson was the consummate professional and was very knowledgeable. We had a great connection and he followed through on getting both estimates completed during the timeline that we agreed to which was in less than a week. I would definitely recommend Accelerated Appraisals to my friends and family. I would just like to suggest paying closer attention to the small but important details prior to emailing the appraisals to the customer."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.

Xeriscaping can absolutely increase your home value, but the return on investment (ROI) depends on where you live and how prevalent xeriscaping is in your area. In drought-prone climates, xeriscaping can boost your curb appeal and make your home more appealing to buyers due to the reduced maintenance and watering costs. However, in areas where xeriscaping isn’t the norm, some buyers may be willing to pay less for a xeriscaped property if they don’t like the appearance.

Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.
