"James was great. Very professional. Gave him an impossible time frame. He did it and even took one day off my deadline. The appraisal was for divorce reasons, would have liked a more favorable result but it is what it is and was fair. I will recommend James and his organization to anyone needing his services."

"Jeff quickly got me pre-approved for a mortgage so I could target a price range. He recommended Chicago neighborhoods based on my budget and transportation needs. We worked together to identify potential houses online and then found a few that deserved a closer look. He arranged a day and time to tour the houses and met me at each location. As we looked at the properties he was able to point out signs of water damage and other attributes that a buyer would want to be aware of. Within weeks I found a house in my price range that exceeded my expectations. He negotiated a good price for me and was even able to recommend a home inspector and lawyer. Jeff walked me through every step of the process, was quick to answer my e-mail messages and was professional in all respects."

"I purchased a big deal for handyman services by Chicago estate and retail. Jose and his son were excellent! They were punctual, courteous.and skilled. While Jose's son assembled a bench for my entryway, Jose worked on repairing a cracked wooden door in the guest bedroom. Jose applied wood filler in the crack and then painted over it. The door looks great! Jose then installed crank handles on my kitchen windows. Lastly, Jose looked at the cracked paint on the window and door casements throughout my house as well as some damaged drywall, and quoted a very fair price for the work. I highly recommend Jose and his son and will definitely use them for my next home project.

"We rented from Fundamental Property Management two years ago and could not be happier with the level of responsiveness and professionalism we have received. When we were moving in we asked if additional cleaning could be done, I simply wasn’t satisfied with the previous tenants attempt, and they immediately jumped into action. When the dishwasher broke we had an instant response from the company and waited the normal amount of time for a replacement. They purchased a quality unit which to me says they care about the longevity of their appliances and care for the needs of their tenants. Thank you Fundamenal Property Management for your care and time with our needs!"

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

While there’s technically no limit to the dollar amount you can borrow for a home addition, the standard limit is around 80% of the value the addition is expected to add to your home. That means you could feasibly borrow up to $80,000 if an appraiser determines that the addition or bump out will add $100,000 in value to your property. You might also be limited by your debt-to-income ratio or credit score.

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.

The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:

  • Single-family homes: $300–$400

  • FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500

  • Condominium: $300–$500

  • Multi-family home: $500–$1,000

  • Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000

  • Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000

  • Raw land: $1,000–$8,000

Ensure the property is clean, provide access to all areas, and supply relevant documents, such as recent upgrades or tax records.

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.
