"We hired Mr Haase to appraise the value of our home so one owner could buy the other one out. We needed a detailed and accurate assessment that took the various improvements we made into account, but didn't inflate the value for things that would not normally affect the sales price. Mr. Haase was quick and responsive, was able to do the appraisal right away and send his final report within a couple of days, the final report was fair and detailed, and the price was very affordable. We would recommend Mr Haase to anyone looking for the same."

"Do yourself a favor, and if you need an agent, select Cindy. When Cindy heard I was trying to sell the out of state property of my deceased Dad, she stepped into the picture- from a distance- to touch base with me throughout the process. This is the consummate professional with a fabulous sense of humor as well. Just as an unsolicited advisor she volunteered more useful strategies and information than my NY realtor. She is a powerful professional to have advising you."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Yes, installing a tennis court can be a worthwhile home improvement project that adds value to your property. The potential increase in value can range from $20,000 to $150,000, and in some cases, the return on investment can cover more than 60% of the installation cost. However, the impact on value heavily depends on the size of your property. For homes with multiple acres, a tennis court is often a valuable amenity. In contrast, for homes on smaller lots, installing a court can decrease the property's value because it consumes a significant portion of the usable yard space. It's crucial to consider your property size and the remaining usable yard before proceeding.

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.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.

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.
