A residential real estate appraiser in my 31st year of practice.I cover much of NE Metro Atlanta & surrounding counties. I still complete assignments for lenders however, the majority of my assignments are for private parties. I regularly appraise properties for divorce settlements, pre-listing purposes, estate settlements, bankruptcy proceedings, cash purchases. I have completed many appraisals on lakes, rivers and, mountains. I specialize in "problem" properties and situations. I regularly testify in court. I am a 64 yr old father of 10. Grandfather of 11. If you are getting a mortgage, the lender will choose the appraiser. Please put as much info as possible into the Angi Leads form, this information regarding the appraisal purpose and the real estate helps me know how to assist you. Thanks for your consideration.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

The entire appraisal process takes from seven to 10 days. This timeline accounts for the many steps of the appraisal process, including the post-inspection report completed by the appraiser.

Home appraisal services include the following tasks:

  • Inspect home interior and exterior

  • Evaluate materials, features, fixtures, and renovations

  • Review comparable properties

  • Write an appraisal report

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). 

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

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.
