"Elliott Morales did an excellent job with our property appraisal. He was very reliable, professional, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. What we appreciated most was how helpful he was—he took the time to explain the appraisal and even gave us useful pointers on how to handle our notice of assessment from the city. His guidance went above and beyond what we expected. We highly recommend Elliott to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy appraiser."

"The process to find what you’re looking for on Home Advisor was simple. The professional that was suggested was excellent in every way. He answered my inquiry promptly. He arrived at the appointment on time. He was friendly and knowledgeable. He did a thorough appraisal of my property and sent a report in a very timely manner. His fee was comparable to others. I will contact him again for future services and will use Home Advisor again for other needs as well."

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.

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

Mobile homes weigh anywhere between 45 to 50 pounds per square foot. Some newer options weigh up to 70 pounds per square foot. An average single-wide mobile home weighs 45,000 pounds, and a double-wide mobile home weighs about 70,000 pounds. Triple-wide mobile homes range from 90,000 to 100,000 pounds.

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.

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.
