"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"We had eight properties appraised for our parentâ s estate. This took a LOT of coordination as they are all rentals. Chris was great in working with our tenants, flexible, professional and courteous with all parties involved. Our appraisals were completed in a timely manner. As a former real estate loan underwriter, I can attest that all of the appraisals were done in a professional manner, accurate and represented the current market. I would HIGHLY recommend Chris Circuit for any appraisal needs that you may have."

"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."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They’ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

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.

Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.
