"This was an appraisal of a older condominium unit in a gated Southern California beach community for a trust administration. Unusual in that Penny did not have access to interior of the unit she had to appraise. She was very thorough in her research of the complex, and inspected a similar unit that was on the market, in addition to reviewing prior sales records and condition of the unit she appraised. Her comps were very good and it was clear that she'd done her due diligence to discern the appropriate sales, given the three different areas of buildout in the complex. She made a balanced and fair valuation of the property which was important for me to have as the Trustee, and reported on her considerations in good detail."

"Excellent Home Appraisal Experience! Review: I recently had the pleasure of working with a fantastic home appraisal service for a home in Diamond Bar, CA. From start to finish, the team was professional, thorough, and provided exceptional service. Being on another coast, choosing an Appraiser was daunting. The final appraisal report was comprehensive and well-documented, providing me with a clear understanding of my home's value. Not only did the appraisal process go smoothly, but the team also demonstrated excellent communication skills. I highly recommend this home appraisal service for anyone in need of a reliable and professional assessment of their property. Their expertise and attention to detail truly set them apart. Thank you to the entire appraisal team for their outstanding service. Kind regards, Brody D"

"My husband and I are thrilled by the service we received from Appraising LA. We needed an appraisal in a very short turn around time and not only did they perform the service within record time, but they even went out on a Sunday to inspect the property in order to meet our deadline. They also offered the best price of any appraiser we contacted. We highly recommend Appraising LA and would definitely use them again.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.

Estate shutters are considered a high-end window treatment that increases home value. As previously mentioned, this project comes with an ROI of up to 75%. Shutters can also improve your home’s energy efficiency, especially if you choose PVC or faux wood shutters, which will lead to long-term savings on your energy bills.

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.

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.

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.
