"The work was performed extremely capably and produced an evaluation that should stand me in good stead as I appeal an excessive property tax revaluation. Akrivis provided me with an accurate, well documented report and took only seven days to do it. I am very pleased."

"Swanson appraisals are one of the best firms in the country. Iâ ve been in the industry for 26 years and wish I could use them in every state. You would have to search long and hard to find a company as worthy of your business. Their accuracy and careful attention to details in their reports are rare."

"The first meeting with Jeff I noticed he had a keen perception of people. He asked me pointed questions to understand what my needs and wants were. He showed me only a handful of condos before I found the place that was perfect for me. He even negotiated a lower price than I had expected to pay! Jeff also helped me with my loan and managed to locate a loan with a lower percentage rate on my 30 year fixed loan. The process was stressful since I was a first time home buyer. Jeff made it as painless as possible. He answered every single question without delay, patience, and was extremely knowledgeable. I will use Jeff again and will refer him to anyone looking to buy property."

"

I have used her service numerous times to have my assessment appealed on my house. The tax saved for 3 years of the assessment cycle with the second installment of my 2014 real estate tax bill is $2557.59. They are very professional and would recommend them to reduce your taxes. My brother who owns two apartment buildings also has used their services. Angie's List had a $50.00 coupon off of their services which reduced my fee to $291.04.

"Fundamental Property Management is who we worked with to rent a house in Westmont. We have lived here for almost three years. The house is great and we really like it. Moving in was easy and there were no issues. When things have gone wrong with the house, they were mostly on top of getting someone here to fix the issue. They are the go between between you and the landlord so it takes time depending on how responsive everyone is. We have most recently had to keep up with them taking rent out of our account. We were not charged a late fee but the online portal they use is not the best system. When we first moved in the landlord would be here occasionally painting the deck and had a lawn service come in the spring. For the past two years that hasn’t happened. We continue the upkeep ourselves. Overall I would say we are mostly satisfied. The only other issue is that it is hard to speak directly to someone so there is sometimes a response delay."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Yes, high ceilings can increase your home's value when it's time to sell. According to some studies, homes with ceilings that are 9 feet or higher can sell for up to 6% more than homes with lower ceilings. While other factors like your home’s location and condition are more impactful, homes with high ceilings have a greater perceived value. Buyers often appreciate the extra space and modern feel that high or vaulted ceilings provide, making it a potentially worthwhile investment.

The difference between a mobile home and a trailer home is primarily between construction standards and usage. Mobile homes built after 1976 meet HUD safety regulations, offering more durability and livability. Trailer homes, an older term, often refer to smaller, lightweight units primarily designed for temporary travel or camping.

Under the right circumstances, removing your popcorn ceiling can have a favorable ROI exceeding 80%. The ROI depends on several factors, such as the size of your ceiling, where the texture is located in your home, the state of the housing market, and whether the ceiling contains asbestos.

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.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.
