Q: Do foundation cracks affect your appraisal?

• <div><p>Foundation cracks won&rsquo;t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren&rsquo;t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.</p></div>

Q: Does a deck add value to a home?

• <div><p>Adding a deck to your home will increase its overall value. Per <a href="https://www.remodeling.hw.net/cost-vs-value/2023/"><i>Remodeling</i></a><i> </i>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.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a property valuation and an appraisal?

• <div><p>A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert&rsquo;s opinion on <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/home-appraisal-vs-market-value.htm">how much your property will sell for</a>. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you&rsquo;ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.</p></div>

Q: Is renovating a historic home worth it?

• <div><p>For homeowners who love the charm and character of historic homes, renovating is well worth the invested cost. Keep in mind, though, that historic homes often need more extensive work than you might think at first, so be sure you know exactly what needs to be done so you can decide for yourself if the time, money, and effort are worth it for you.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a home inspection and a home appraisal?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-home-inspector.htm">A home inspection</a> evaluates the property visually to determine whether there are any structural problems that the current homeowner must repair before selling. A home appraisal is a thorough evaluation of the property and its surrounding area to determine its current market value, which informs homeowners of the value of their home to help set the asking price. The appraisal will guide the mortgage company&rsquo;s lending decision.</p></div>

The quote was about the same as another company, but the other company would charge extra for each piece of plywood that needed to be replaced and other things. It was nice to know what we would pay. The price quoted is what we paid. There were windows in one room that needed to be replaced....

We had a very negative experience with Matt Fratzel, and his one and only plumber, Kurt, that he sent to do some of the work. Matt told us his employee was "slow, but good". One problem we had was that not only was he slow, he also did not repair things correctly the first time. We had multiple...
