"Mr. Chuck Fisher did an appraisal on my deceased mother's house. He was on time for the appointment, was friendly, and professional. I had the report in about four days which was fine with me. His price was reasonable and fair compared to a few others I spoke to. His report gave me an appraised value as of the date of death as well as a current value which was a few months after the death. Another appraiser wanted to charge a lot extra for the two values. I think Mr. Fisher did a thorough and fair appraisal."

"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."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:

  • Single-family homes: $300–$400

  • FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500

  • Condominium: $300–$500

  • Multi-family home: $500–$1,000

  • Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000

  • Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000

  • Raw land: $1,000–$8,000

Yes, awnings can add value to a home, primarily by boosting its curb appeal and providing more usable outdoor space. While the exact monetary return on investment depends on the awning's size, style, and quality, they offer an excellent appeal factor to potential buyers. For example, an awning with a trendy metal roof can be particularly attractive. Even if the direct increase in resale value is modest, a well-chosen awning enhances the home's functionality and aesthetic.

Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.
