Customers say: Quick response

"I had the pleasure of working with Keith Shaplin, the owner of Majestic Appraisals, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, Keith demonstrated a level of professionalism and expertise that truly sets him apart. First and foremost, scheduling with Keith was a breeze. He was incredibly easy to reach and accommodated my schedule with ease, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. But beyond just being easy to schedule, Keith's friendly and personable demeanor immediately put me at ease. He took the time to understand my needs and ensured that I felt comfortable throughout the appraisal process. When it comes to professionalism, Keith is a consummate pro. His work is not only timely but also incredibly fast and efficient, delivering results in a timely manner. And let's talk about value â Keith's services are very reasonably priced, offering top-notch quality without breaking the bank. The appraisal reports provided by Keith were exceptionally well-written, clear, and comprehensive. I was impressed by the professional finished product, complete with clear, high-definition photos that provided valuable insights into the property in question. What truly sets Keith apart, though, is his dedication to customer service. Even after the appraisal was complete, he remained available for any questions or concerns I had, demonstrating a level of commitment that goes above and beyond. In summary, working with Keith Shaplin and Majestic Appraisals was a five-star experience in every sense of the word. If you're in need of an appraiser who is not only highly skilled but also friendly, efficient, and dedicated to customer satisfaction, look no further than Keith. Highly recommended!"

"The company followed up on the appointment and was on-time for the appraisal. The report was delivered in a matter of days. I noticed a deficiency in the initial appraisal. I reached out to the appraiser, and the document was corrected and updated within 24 hours. Because of his excellent customer service, I rehired him to appraise another property."

"I hired Jeffrey to give me an appraisal after I perform the number of upgrades on my home. Jeffrey was realistic, informative and very fair in his appraisal. I appreciated his willingness to walk me through the appraisal and to give me a true sense of the value of the property. I especially appreciated that he was conservative and fair. I'm certain this appraisal will stand the scrutiny of USDA and any Federal Bank. Sometimes appraisers work for the bank. I felt Jeffrey was protective of my interest. Jeffrey gave me confidence in me potential investment."

"Ryan is indeed an excellent agent, period! My husband and I are first-time home buyers. We basically knew nothing about the process by the time we started. Ryan just helped us find our dream home. I can't say enough about how professional and friendly he is. We went tour at least 20 properties, and Ryan was always very patient, and informative. He pointed out the problems without we asking about them, and he kept telling us to take our time until we are absolutely in love with a house. Our home hunting lasted over four months. Ryan kept us updated about the properties on the market (even coming soon) that meet our needs promptly. By the time we finally found the one, Ryan literally did everything he can to help us get the best deal possible. The seller and his agent weren't very responsive. It took a week for the seller to sign the contract after they accepted our offer (probably because Ryan negotiated us such a great deal). My husband and I got pretty nervous about the whole deal falling apart, but again, Ryan saved the world! Ryan did everything possible to keep this deal move forward. Once we were under contract, the whole process went very smoothly. Ryan helped us every step of the way, we were even able to close early. I know a lot of the buyers think about the rebate from a real estate agent. We did too, at the very beginning. The fact is, Ryan may not give the same rebate as a Redfin agent, but I think the best decision I ever made is to have Ryan as our agent. The service you get from Ryan is completely at a different level. We talked to Redfin agents too, and in our case, the seller had a Redfin agent. The way they operate is to have different people handle different steps of the home-buying/selling transaction. And they were not very good at keeping relevant people informed. We had a couple of hiccups because the seller's agent did even know what's going on since some associates in Redfin were working on the case without keeping him informed. Anyway, it not worth taking these troubles to get the refund. When it comes to negotiation, it could easily be several thousands of dollars we are looking at, and that's when you need an excellent agent to help you save money. Luckily we have Ryan, who is very good at it. I would recommend Ryan to anyone who is looking for a real estate agent."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They’ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.

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

The average cost for a home or property appraisal is about $355, with prices typically ranging from $250 to $500. The final cost is influenced by several factors, including the property's size, age, location, and how it compares to other homes in the area. Appraisals for larger, older, or non-conforming properties often cost more. While a single-family home appraisal usually costs between $300 and $400, appraising a multi-family home can range from $500 to $1,000 due to its increased size and complexity.

Estate shutters are considered a high-end window treatment that increases home value. As previously mentioned, this project comes with an ROI of up to 75%. Shutters can also improve your home’s energy efficiency, especially if you choose PVC or faux wood shutters, which will lead to long-term savings on your energy bills.
