"Worst experience ever. My recent review must have been deleted. This man came to my house without even measuring the square footage of my property. He stated the wrong sq ft on the report and the wrong number of bathrooms and he refused to answer my calls or texts thereafter. His opinion about my property was $233,000 in August. Another company valued my property at $260,000 in September as the new company was very meticulous. I will not recommend JB Appraisal due to his incompetence, lousy, and biased report. I do not think this only happened to me. The most awful appraisal ever. Please save yourself any stress. Do not do business with JB Appraisal."

"The square footage in our appraisal was significantly incorrect, and when I pointed it out, backed it up with evidence. the only change made was swapping out one comp ? with no explanation for how nearly 400 sq ft of over-reported space would not reduce the value. I explained he could come remeasure and that was ignored. I even provided better comps at the appraiser?s request, but those were ignored as well. My final email addressing the valuation issues was never acknowledged. It has now been nearly a week with no response. This cost me time and money, and then we had to hire a second appraiser to correct the mistakes. Truly a frustrating and unprofessional experience to work with this appraiser."

"Hired to do valuation of a manufactured home - not on land. Gave appraisal comparison properties included land. therefore not an accurate valuation. Thought salesperson understood nuance. "

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Currently, the average house in Hawaii is around $830,000, with prices having risen over the last five years. Some areas, like Honolulu or Ewa Beach, are a bit less expensive, but others, like Waimanalo and Pearl City, drive up the average price.

It’s often a good idea to take care of any health and safety repairs before an appraisal to make sure the mortgage can move to underwriting without having to pay for another appraisal. Replace any broken glass, fix uneven or sloping floors, ensure all steps have appropriate handrails, and have a professional get rid of mold, asbestos, and lead paint. Beyond these repairs, you can update appliances or fixtures and focus on aesthetic improvements like new paint to add the most value before scheduling an appraisal.

Yes, a tennis court can potentially add significant value to your home. The increase can be anywhere from $20,000 to $150,000.

Stylish drop tiles, such as wood or metal, could add value to your home if the drop ceiling hides imperfections on an old surface. However, traditional fiberboard and plastic drop ceilings can have the opposite effect, especially if new prospective buyers do not like that aesthetic. Savvy buyers may also know that drop ceilings are a go-to ceiling option in areas where leaks are an issue, given the easy access to the area above the ceiling and the ease of replacing a single tile. This could dissuade a buyer from purchasing your home.

No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.
