An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

Typically during transactions or refinancing, or whenever significant improvements are made.

Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.
