"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."

Thank you again Candy Watts for your help with this."

"I am a 100% satisfied first time First Advantage customer. Wade arrived on time, was very thorough with his home inspection, highly professional and pleasantly very personable as well. I did a lot of research prior to hiring First Advantage and could not be any happier with both the business experience and my very comprehensive highly detailed home appraisal that was emailed to me promptly as promised the very next day in PDF format and by request, a complementary mailed printed copy was included as well. If anyone needs an honest and accurate very comprehensive professional home appraisal, I highly recommend hiring this second-to-none in the industry home appraisal company. Thanks Wade. It was a genuine pleasure doing business with you. If I ever need another home appraisal or meet anyone else who needs one, expect to hear back from me or them again. Best wishes to you and your family."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.

Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they’re fully legal, which means they have proper ventilation and points of egress, as defined by your local building code. Simply partitioning off a space for a bedroom in an otherwise unfinished basement that isn’t a legal living space won’t affect your appraisal value.

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

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