"John was great! We had hired another appraisal from someone else and after two weeks realized we were never going to hear from him again so we turned to home advisor and couldn't be happier. After explaining our situation John was more than accommodating. We received the appraisal on time and as promised. Truely a great experience."

"

I have used her service numerous times to have my assessment appealed on my house. The tax saved for 3 years of the assessment cycle with the second installment of my 2014 real estate tax bill is $2557.59. They are very professional and would recommend them to reduce your taxes. My brother who owns two apartment buildings also has used their services. Angie's List had a $50.00 coupon off of their services which reduced my fee to $291.04.

"I hired Kwolf Consulting for an appraisal on my own home. He did five area comparisons and provided a very detailed report on my home and in comparison to the other homes listed in the report. This gave me a great "peace of mind" knowing exactly where I stand at this moment. If I am not mistaken, Keith has achieved a Senior Real Estate Appraiser status, something that is not granted without special training, education and years of experience. Based on my experience with his high quality and professional service, I highly recommend him to others."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

A comprehensive smart home system can be really attractive to buyers and increase the value of your property. Components such as a smart security system, smart lawn and garden systems, and smart appliances can all drive up the value of your property.

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

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.
