"John with JB Appraisals is totally top of the line! My time and money was well-spent. John arrived promptly and performed a thorough and professional appraisal. I was thrilled with John s speed and accuracy, since he delivered the appraisal to the bank even faster than initially estimated. John is very knowledgeable and took the time to answer all my questions. It was a pleasure doing business with him. I will not hesitate to use John again, and HIGHLY recommend him to anyone getting a residential real estate appraisal."

"Tom McNeeley did an appraisal of my home for a property tax appeal before the Illinois property tax appeal aboard (PTAB) and provided expert testimony supporting his appraisal at the appeal hearing before the administrative law judge (ALJ). His appraisal was comprehensive and fair and his testimony before the ALJ was thorough and skillful. Tom was very accommodative with his time and was easy to work with. I thought his fee for the appraisal and for his expert testimony were very fair. I highly recommend using McNeeley Appraisals, particularly with respect to property tax cases."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.

The cost ranges from $300 to $500, depending on the property's size and location. Due to their complexity, commercial appraisals may cost more.

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

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.
