"I recommend the Diamond Exchange in Rockville for their fair prices for buying gold. I checked other businesses in the region and Diamond Exchange’s purchase price was the highest. They gave me $3 more per gram than what I would have gotten elsewhere. I worked with Keith Grymes, and he was very professional and competent. I highly recommend!"

Antiques and Jewelry Appraisals questions, answered by experts

The cost ranges from $300 to $500, depending on the property's size and location. Due to their complexity, commercial appraisals may cost more.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

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.

Home and property appraisals cost about $355 on average, ranging from $250 to $500, depending on the size of the home and property, age of the property, comparability to nearby homes, and location. While single-family homes typically cost between $300 and $400 to appraise, multi-family home appraisal can cost $500 to $1,000 due to the increased size and building complexity.

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
