"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

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.

Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.

Estate shutters are considered a high-end window treatment that increases home value. As previously mentioned, this project comes with an ROI of up to 75%. Shutters can also improve your home’s energy efficiency, especially if you choose PVC or faux wood shutters, which will lead to long-term savings on your energy bills.

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump.
