"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."

"We  had a short time to look for a house as we were only coming down for a couple of days prior to making the move to Kentucky.  Glenn provided the details of a number of houses prior to when we came down and then he had arranged for us to see those as well as others he thought we may like based on our selection. He provided a good range of locations and styles in the guidelines we outlined. He also gave us a lot of information about the area that helped us determine where we would like to live as well as general information about the community. We were able to select a house that was great for us and we even had a couple of backups as second and third choices that would have been fine for us as well.  Glenn was very well organized and took care of all the details from our initial visit through to the close. He even helped us make sure that we considered everything we needed to during the process from negotiating with the seller to making sure the items on the inspection list were taken care of. I would highly recommend Glenn and would definitely use his services again for buying or selling a house."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The entire appraisal process takes from seven to 10 days. This timeline accounts for the many steps of the appraisal process, including the post-inspection report completed by the appraiser.

Home appraisal services include the following tasks:

  • Inspect home interior and exterior

  • Evaluate materials, features, fixtures, and renovations

  • Review comparable properties

  • Write an appraisal report

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

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.
