"I recently hired the Jackson Appraisal Group to help me reduce my property tax bill and I couldn't be happier with the results. The appraiser was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient throughout the process. From the initial consultation, Christian Jackson listened carefully to my concerns and explained the process in a way that was easy to understand. They also provided valuable insights into the local real estate market and helped me understand how my property fit into that market. As the appraisal process moved forward, Christian was always prompt in responding to my questions and requests for updates. He provided thorough and detailed reports that clearly explained the value of my property and how it was determined. Ultimately, the appraisal helped me successfully appeal my property tax bill and resulted in a significant reduction in the amount I owed. I would highly recommend Jackson Appraisal Group to anyone looking to reduce their property tax bill or simply get a better understanding of the value of their property."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

They provide objective, third-party valuation, guiding fair sales or purchase prices.

Your home insurance company may allow you to use an appraisal instead of an inspection when you apply for coverage. Keep in mind that despite this, an appraisal is far less detailed than the different types of home inspections available and may not reveal potential risks that you’ll want to know about.

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.
