"I was very happy with my experience with this company and the way that they handled my situation. There were some unusual issues with this appraisal that made it more complicated than the usual. It was handled professionally and in a very efficient manner and I was very pleased with how friendly and knowledgeable Don was and how he put me at ease and offered me much more advice than just the appraisal required! He is a great guy and I appreciate his expertise and his willingness to help me in the short amount of time that I had to get this done ! I would recommend him without any hesitation!"

"It was a very good service. It was nice and quick. He provided the details and he found the issue, he provided the feedback of the house to the previous owner and there is no issue. He is precise and specific, inspect every detail of the house, he helped us to estimate the furnace, old pipes before gone into this thing, and it is very helpful to us a lot. I would recommend him to any other people who would be needing any inspection in their real estate property. Very professional kind of customer service. Very good price and very affordable."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Your home insurance company may allow you to use an appraisal instead of an inspection when you apply for coverage. Keep in mind that despite this, an appraisal is far less detailed than the different types of home inspections available and may not reveal potential risks that you’ll want to know about.

Xeriscaping can absolutely increase your home value, but the return on investment (ROI) depends on where you live and how prevalent xeriscaping is in your area. In drought-prone climates, xeriscaping can boost your curb appeal and make your home more appealing to buyers due to the reduced maintenance and watering costs. However, in areas where xeriscaping isn’t the norm, some buyers may be willing to pay less for a xeriscaped property if they don’t like the appearance.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

Ideally, you’d never pay more than the appraised value for a home, but there are some instances where it makes sense to do so. For example, if your current living arrangements are no longer viable and you need a place to move into quickly, paying more than the appraised value might be in your best interest to secure a new home. Additionally, if you’re buying in a hot market, overpaying for the home might be necessary to overcome the competition.

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.
