Customers say: Quick response

"Elmer was very professional on my land appraisal. He made two trips to the planning department in order to determine the highest and best use of my land based on San Jose's zoning and building requirements. Elmer was very easy to contact by phone. He always answered his phone or readily called me back. I would gladly use him to do any future appraisals."

He is extremely thorough and meticulous, and strives to do the the best work possible. By the end of the project, he knew more about my house, neighborhood, and market conditions than almost anyone else I could imagine. He is easily available to answer any questions or address any concerns, and is extremely conscientious about his work. Furthermore, he is just a really nice and friendly guy. I would recommend him strongly for any appraisal work."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.

Your home insurance company may allow you to use an appraisal instead of an inspection when you apply for coverage. Keep in mind that despite this, an appraisal is far less detailed than the different types of home inspections available and may not reveal potential risks that you’ll want to know about.

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.

The cost ranges from $300 to $500, depending on the property's size and location. Due to their complexity, commercial appraisals may cost more.

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.
