"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

In most cases, no, a seller cannot negotiate after an appraisal if they signed an offer agreement. The only exception would be if there was a contingency in the offer that stated that the offer acceptance was contingent on the appraisal amount. If that’s the case, the seller can negotiate a higher sale price to match the appraised amount. If the appraised amount comes in below the sale price, both sides have to agree to negotiate, but there may be no other option since the buyer’s lender might not approve the higher amount.

You shouldn’t see a difference in your home’s value from your local property assessor if you have asbestos. Does asbestos affect home value when you are selling the home, though? If you are planning to sell the home, most jurisdictions require you to legally disclose the presence of asbestos to any buyer. Most buyers would have reservations about purchasing a home with asbestos, so they may offer less for the home. If you hire a pro to completely remove the asbestos, you do not have to disclose to buyers that the home once had asbestos.

For homeowners who love the charm and character of historic homes, renovating is well worth the invested cost. Keep in mind, though, that historic homes often need more extensive work than you might think at first, so be sure you know exactly what needs to be done so you can decide for yourself if the time, money, and effort are worth it for you.

If the sales agreement has a clause that allows the seller to renegotiate based on the appraised value, then they might be able to back out if the appraisal comes in higher than your offer price. If the agreement doesn’t have that language, then the seller has no legal recourse to back out. They could hold a higher offer as a backup and move onto that one if yours falls through for any reason, but once the agreement is signed, the seller is locked into that purchase price unless there’s a clause stating they can renegotiate.

A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.
