"Great. Reported late Fri PM. Lone Star Appliance contacted me Monday AM, and came to appt. Tue PM as scheduled. Tech. was knowledge, and professional, advising the process. Choice Home Warranty (CHW) would advise how it would go forward. Wed. PM CHW made a cash settlement offerer. I did not want new unit. Claim manager advised the reason for cash offer was due to no brand name part available. We came to an agreement to replace the dishwasher. I investigated for several days, and new unit ordered yesterday, and being installed tomorrow. The settlement was fair. This is the 3rd appliance CHW has replaced over 5 years and 2 properties. I do and have recommended Choice Home Warranty."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they’re fully legal, which means they have proper ventilation and points of egress, as defined by your local building code. Simply partitioning off a space for a bedroom in an otherwise unfinished basement that isn’t a legal living space won’t affect your appraisal value.

Ensures accurate valuation reflecting current market conditions, assisting in financial decisions.

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.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.
