"I hired Ray to give me an objective value of the property I was buying. When he sent me the report I just about died. It was lower than my offer. After a very sleepless night I put together a counter offer that was accepted!! Lesson: put appraisal in your contract as a contingency, hire an certified appraiser like Ray and don't be afraid to renegotiate if necessary."

"I had the pleasure of working with Wojciech Leja (FYI he pronounces it Voy-CHECK) from My Florida Home Appraisal / and I couldn’t be more impressed with his professionalism and in-depth knowledge, particularly when it comes to navigating the FEMA 50/50 rule. Wojciech took the time to thoroughly explain the nuances of the 50/50 rule, which can be quite complex for homeowners. He made sure I fully understood how it applies to my property, helping me make informed decisions about potential FEMA assistance for repairs or rebuilding. His expertise in this area was invaluable and helped relieve a lot of stress. Beyond his expertise, Wojciech was prompt, responsive, and genuinely cared about ensuring I had a clear understanding of the process every step of the way. If you’re in Hillsborough/Pinellas and need someone who knows their stuff when it comes to FEMA regulations and appraisals, I highly recommend Wojciech Leja at My Florida at Home Appraisal."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

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.

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.

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.
