"I highly recommend Mike! I sent a message through Angi, and literally within a few minutes, Mike responded to my message and called me as well. He quickly and efficiently worked with me to schedule a home appraisal that I wanted to use as part of my Cook County property tax appeal. He arrived on time as promised on the date even though we had our first snow of the season, and could not have been nicer. Mike delivered my appraisal ahead of the date we agreed on. His appraisal was thorough and the appraised value of our home is in line with current market values, and what we expected. If you need a home appraised, you definitely should contact Mike!"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Countertops play a significant role in determining your home's resale value. High-quality, stylish countertops can attract potential buyers and increase the overall appeal of your property. Desirable materials like granite, quartz, or marble often command a higher resale price. On the other hand, outdated or damaged countertops can deter buyers and lead to lower offers. Investing in attractive, durable countertops can be a smart move to boost your home's resale value.

If the value of the home you want to buy is appraised at less than the price of the offer, you may not be able to obtain a loan for the offer amount. Lenders want to ensure that the amount they’re lending isn’t more than the market value of the property, so you may have to increase your down payment to reduce the loan amount or get a second appraisal if you still want to proceed with the purchase.

Installing a new home theater or upgrading your current one will likely add value to your home, as many prospective buyers will consider it an exciting bonus feature. However, the value of a home theater is subjective and depends on the buyer, so there’s no guarantee that it’ll increase your home sale value. Keep in mind that home theaters typically have a return on investment rate of about 65%.

Mold can greatly impact your home's appraisal and lower your selling price if your home's on the market. Home appraisers take mold into account when figuring out a property's overall value. Mold will lower your home's price because it poses a health risk to household members and can compromise the structural integrity of the house. Mold will require remediation, which in extreme cases can be costly, so that is factored into your home's appraisal as well.

Yes, Colonial homes are generally a good investment. Most home buyers who are interested in this style love its simple yet functional interior and charming exterior. Plus, if you keep up with its maintenance, some homebuyers are more willing to purchase a traditional home without the common issues found in older homes.
