"Worst experience ever. My recent review must have been deleted. This man came to my house without even measuring the square footage of my property. He stated the wrong sq ft on the report and the wrong number of bathrooms and he refused to answer my calls or texts thereafter. His opinion about my property was $233,000 in August. Another company valued my property at $260,000 in September as the new company was very meticulous. I will not recommend JB Appraisal due to his incompetence, lousy, and biased report. I do not think this only happened to me. The most awful appraisal ever. Please save yourself any stress. Do not do business with JB Appraisal."

"The square footage in our appraisal was significantly incorrect, and when I pointed it out, backed it up with evidence. the only change made was swapping out one comp ? with no explanation for how nearly 400 sq ft of over-reported space would not reduce the value. I explained he could come remeasure and that was ignored. I even provided better comps at the appraiser?s request, but those were ignored as well. My final email addressing the valuation issues was never acknowledged. It has now been nearly a week with no response. This cost me time and money, and then we had to hire a second appraiser to correct the mistakes. Truly a frustrating and unprofessional experience to work with this appraiser."

"Hired to do valuation of a manufactured home - not on land. Gave appraisal comparison properties included land. therefore not an accurate valuation. Thought salesperson understood nuance. "

I was raised in Mokena and have lived in the south suburbs my entire life. I am proud to serve the south suburban area, and am more than happy to work in other surrounding areas to achieve your real estate goals. I received my MA in Public Policy and Administration from National Louis University where I researched housing patterns throughout Chicagoland. I have since led a career in social services and nonprofit management with successful results in community outreach and program development in Chicago and the south suburbs. Working in social services has taught me that people need and want different accommodations to successfully achieve their goals. As Realtor, I believe that same concept should be applied when buying or selling a home. I will carefully listen to your wants and needs in order to get your real estate goals accomplished!

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

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

Adding a deck to your home will increase its overall value. Per Remodeling magazine's 2023 Cost vs. Value Report, building a deck is a top 15 home improvement task. Installing a wooden deck has an average return on investment (ROI) of 52%, while building a composite deck offers almost 40% ROI. The amount of value a deck adds to your home depends on deck size, type, material, age, and how well you maintain it.

Yes, a screened-in porch will increase your property taxes because it has a foundation and is considered a permanent improvement to your land. The exact amount your taxes will go up depends on the value of your existing home, the value added by the screened-in porch, the size of the structure, your location, and more.

By increasing square footage and functionality, resale appeal is enhanced.

In many cases, a stamped concrete patio will make your property more valuable. Not only will you and your family likely enjoy it, but many buyers will adore the appearance and utility it brings to your yard and might be willing to pay a premium for it. Stamped concrete is also highly durable and can last a long time with proper care, and it’s relatively easy and affordable to repair. Savvy buyers should understand these upsides, which could increase interest in your property overall.
