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: Can xeriscaping increase your home value?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t the norm, some buyers may be willing to pay less for a xeriscaped property if they don&rsquo;t like the appearance.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect audit costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.</p></div>

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: Do home appraisers look at windows?

• <div><p>Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They&rsquo;ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.</p></div>

Refinance of RE loan was very easy but it did take 60 days to complete. They stood behind initial rate offer, outstanding service during the process. 3 vehicle loans with LAFCU in the past, all were very easy to complete with no problems, phenomenal rates, and great support from their staff!

He was excellent as he gave us a lot of advice on the market. He didn t try to gouge me out of money. We did it all over the phone so he didn't have to come out and charge us for that.

Thank you for considering Appraisals By Silvana, providing residential real estate appraisal services in the Sacramento area for over 18 years. I appraise 1 to 4 unit residential properties, i.e. Single Family, Condo, Duplex, Triplex and Quadruplex. I maintain a Residential License in good standing with the State of California, and have a modest background and a working knowledge of most facets of residential construction. I have appraised all forms of residential property, from small tract homes to large, complex, one of a kind estates. Whatever your residential appraisal needs: family, estate, tax purposes, BK, planning to sell, etc., I will provide you with a professional attitude, the expertise that comes from experience, and a timely turn around. Let me know what you require, and know that your appraisal will be completed swiftly, efficiently, and stress free! Remember though, if this is for a loan, only lenders may order appraisal for lending purposes, not homeowners.

"I hired her because of the positive reviews I saw...but maybe they only post the positive ones! She did not measure the sq. footage herself but relied on "public records" which inaccurately listed my house as 1607 sq. ft. rather than 1075. Apparently these same public records listed my house in a different neighborhood, so she used comps from that neighborhood rather than those near my house. I tried to get her to correct these errors over a period of several months. I tried to get her to explain what public records she was using. Finally she said she had spent too much time on this and hung up on me! Very disappointed, have an appraisal that I paid for that is of no use!"
