Is a scullery worth it?

• <div><p>Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). </p></div>

How much do appraisals cost by home type?

• <div><p>The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:</p><ul><li><p>Single-family homes: $300–$400</p></li><li><p>FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500</p></li><li><p>Condominium: $300–$500</p></li><li><p>Multi-family home: $500–$1,000</p></li><li><p>Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000</p></li><li><p>Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000</p></li><li><p>Raw land: $1,000–$8,000</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Can I be present during the home appraisal?

• <div><p>You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’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: 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 long does an FHA appraisal take?

• <div><p>Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser&rsquo;s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser&rsquo;s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.</p></div>
