"We recently worked with appraiser Andrew on a property we have listed in Vero Beach, and the experience was excellent. Communication was prompt, clear, and to the point, with any questions addressed quickly and professionally. Andrew was a pleasure to work with and delivered the report on time, if not earlier. Great job, and thank you!"

"Matthew was professional, courteous and accommodating in performing two appraisals back-to-back at times convenient to the property manager and tenants to minimize the time they needed to take from their respective jobs to allow access to the properties. Doing so also allowed him to give a good quote on his services, as he was able to perform his work in short order with one principal contact going straight from one property to the next. He also easily accommodated the need for the appraisals to be as of a specific date in the past, in order for them to be used as a Fair Market Valuation for a legal report. His work products were provided quickly in electronic format, as desired, and met all needs and expectations."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.
