Q: How much does a home appraisal cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-home-appraisal-cost.htm">Home and property appraisals cost</a> about <b>$355</b> on average, ranging from <b>$250 to $500</b>, depending on the size of the home and property, age of the property, comparability to nearby homes, and location. While single-family homes typically cost between $300 and $400 to appraise, multi-family home appraisal can cost $500 to $1,000 due to the increased size and building complexity.</p></div>

Q: Do basement bedrooms count on an appraisal?

• <div><p>Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they&rsquo;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&rsquo;t a legal living space won&rsquo;t affect your appraisal value.</p></div>

Q: How can I make sure my property gets the highest appraisal possible?

• <div><p>While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home&rsquo;s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits&mdash;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.</p></div>

Q: Are appraisals required for selling a property?

• <div><p>Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.</p></div>

Q: How do appraisers adjust for a finished basement?

• <div><p>While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location&rsquo;s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. </p></div>

I am in an area that Angie's List is not established in (Barstow). I left a message looking for an appraiser in that area. Penny does not handle the area I am in. Normally if there is nothing in it for the vendor you never get a call back. Penny called back within minutes and went out of...

Mr. Currlin's evaluation was fair and he seemed knowledgable in the housing market. His fees were reasonable and a bit under his competition. I would use him again in the future.
