Only Century 21 Hometown partners Realtor.com, Zillow.com, and Trulia.com have more. No other brokerage ranks in the top 10 for the Central Coast DMA, Hitwise reports. The Central Coast DMA or Demographic Market Area is defined as the stretch of the California coastline that includes Ventura County, Santa Barbara County, and San Luis Obsipo County. The image to the left explains where consumers are connected to the internet when they access C21Home.com for property information. Our ability to attract buyers from beyond the local market area is a key reason why sellers choose to list their home with a Century 21 Hometown agent.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Around 1-2 weeks, including inspection and reporting time for an official evaluation.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’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’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.
