Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Boston homeowners often overlook disclosing recent repairs or upgrades, which can impact home appraisal values. Some forget to mention items stored in less accessible spaces, like cellar nooks or attic crawlspaces, leading to incomplete assessments. Not informing the appraiser about parking restrictions or building access codes—especially in neighborhoods with strict regulations—can also cause avoidable delays in the appraisal process.

Helpful?

In Boston, home and estate appraisals are most popular from late spring through early fall. Warmer weather allows for easier access to properties, especially when items are stored in garages or attics. Winter appraisals are less frequent due to snow, icy sidewalks, and parking bans, which can complicate scheduling and safe entry—particularly in neighborhoods like Beacon Hill or the Back Bay.

Helpful?

In Boston, property and collectibles appraisals can involve extra fees for navigating congested neighborhoods, especially if parking is limited or requires permits. Additional charges may also occur if your appraisal includes items needing specialized research, such as rare coins or historic manuscripts. If your home is in a high-rise or requires elevator access coordination, expect possible surcharges for logistical challenges unique to Boston properties.

Helpful?

Your Boston home is ideal for a property or collectibles appraisal if you own valuable art, antiques, or unique collections with clear documentation or recent upgrades. Properties in historic districts or with items from local artists often benefit most. If you’re preparing for an insurance update, estate planning, or a home sale, an appraisal provides an accurate valuation tailored to Boston’s competitive market.

Helpful?

Before your Boston home appraisal, ensure every item is clearly labeled and easy to access, especially if stored in tight spaces or older brownstones. Organize supporting documents—like provenance records—by item type, and communicate any unique features or recent renovations to the appraiser. If your property is near Fenway or in a busy area, consider scheduling appointments outside peak traffic times for smoother access.
