"As a trustee of an estate I am overwhelmed with all of the frustrating hoops I need to jump through, the confusion, the lack of response from different agencies. But one thing went right: the appraisal of real property by Damon. Prompt and reasonable."

"Charlie was great to work with. Most of the time appraisers will get an order to do an appraisal and call you in the next few days. Charlie called right away and we were able to schedule an appointment for the very next day. I really appreciated his timeliness, especially right before a holiday. Within 2 days, the appraisal report was complete! Charlie was also very easy to talk with and listened intently to various items that would accurately reflect the value of the property."

"I recently engaged the services of FirstSum for a property appraisal, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Rob demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism throughout the entire process. His attention to detail during the property inspection was commendable, and they provided valuable insights into the local real estate market. The final appraisal report was delivered promptly and was both comprehensive and easy to understand. I highly recommend FirstSum for their expertise and exceptional service for all your real estate appraisal needs."

"Theresa is fabulous from start to finish. She responded to my inquiry right away, discussed our needs and preferences, and immediately began sending MLS listings through her online system so we could do a significant amount of narrowing before traveling to San Diego. We therefore spent the weeks before our trip there narrowing our options and getting to know the market, and she was very attentive to our comments, adjusting to our needs as we moved through the process. Theresa has a great eye for property, and a keen sense of how to adapt to her clients' preferences. She is dedicated and tirelessly worked with our schedule. For example, because of our limited time, she kept working after a full day of looking at property to send us some more possibilities in case we wanted to see something more before heading out of town. Once we were in escrow, Theresa's skills became even more evident as she coached us through all the steps of a careful house inspection and toward a smooth closing. She kept every "t" crossed and every "i" dotted as we hurdled through the mounds of paperwork, and she was always available to talk through any aspect of the process. I can't say enough about Theresa Davis; she is a truly stellar real estate agent."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

They provide objective, third-party valuation, guiding fair sales or purchase prices.

An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.

Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they’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’t a legal living space won’t affect your appraisal value.

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’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.
