"Had JS Appraisals appraise my house for a VA loan. James Reported that the house had not been updated for 15+ years. The house just had a new lifetime roof installed days before the appraisal. Also new counter tops in kitchen and bathroom. Complete repaint inside and out within three years. HVAC and Water Heater replaced 5 years ago. New carpet 3 years ago. Would not recommend."

Offering Home inspection, mold testing and real estate representative services. Quality, not cost should be your biggest concern when shopping for a home inspector, if you are looking for the cheapest then you may be disappointed with us. If you are looking a thorough inspector, who has your best interests as our main concern then give us a call. We don’t rush through your inspection to get to the next one like some of our competitors will. We are an independent licensed home inspection provider, which means you can guarantee a 100% honest and thorough inspection. We have you, the buyer's, best interests at hand and you can count on us to not over look items or include confusing language to “sugar coat” even the most petty findings. As a buyer you should be prepared and understand that every inspection performed will have deficiencies found, and no house will be perfect. But it is our duty as home inspectors to make you aware of ALL of the findings. We will categorize the deficiencies found but will let you decide what is your biggest concern. We have several companies that can provide radon or mold testing if necessary, both of which we use and trust. We offer home inspection services 7 days a week by appointment only. Please have a look in the photo gallery for sample screen shots of portions of our reports. We accept cash, Chase Quickpay, PayPal, credit cards (2.75% service charge) and personal checks, payment is due at the time of the inspection.

"Mike Kozenko refused to take any responsibility for the errors on the appraisal I paid him $425 for. See the link for TYKE's pricing. He was a direct referral from the lender, so I did not think to check. Another scam by the dynamic duo as the lender who also turned out to be useless. Mike Kozenko told the lender in a group message that I was complaining, out of my mind, and that Mike Kozenko blocked me.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.

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.

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. 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. 

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.
