"Because I was dealing with anxiety on whether to sell or whether to rent, etc., and I guess, anxiety in general, I really lucked out with the people who contacted me from Akrivis. They, especially David, and most especially Scott ,were just plain excellent."

"Thom, arrived at our home at the time he said he would. We received the full written appraisal exactly when we told we would have it. It was thorough, clear to read and to understand, the comps were very well matched, and the appraisal was very comprehensive. The day after receiving the appraisal, re-reading it over again, we had a few questions to ask Thom. We received a call back w/in a few hrs and were given ample time to ask all our questions and Thom gave us clear answers and we received full understanding of a few aspects of the appraisal. Highly recommend Maine Appraisal Company to anyone looking for a complete and thorough appraisal. Thom was a pleasure to work with."

"Everything went wonderfully with this company.  They were very professional, listened to exactly what my problem was, and explained to me how they were going to diagnose the problem and/or solve it before doing any actual work.  Once they started, the team (three people came) worked together like a well-oiled machine.  One was in the room with diagnostics, one was at the fuse box looking for possible problems there, and the third went into the crawlspace beneath our house to look at the physical wiring.  Once the problem was found (there was a faulty wire beneath the house that had come loose from the junction box), it was fixed and tested within minutes and another full diagnostic was done to make sure there were no other possible issues.  They cleaned up after themselves very neatly.  They also replaced the light switch with a dimmer switch at no extra cost!  Well within my budget, and came in even lower than their original (FREE) estimate!  I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Bergen County area.

"The home inspection was OK with several repairs called out, but results were little more than saw during initial walk through and several additional electrical code issues were discovered post-inspection that would have been good to have known about from inspection itself."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.

Appraisals do not come with warranties but are considered accurate at the time of assessment. Market changes can affect values.

Yes, high ceilings can increase your home's value when it's time to sell. According to some studies, homes with ceilings 9 feet or higher can sell for up to 6% more than homes with lower ceilings. Buyers often have a greater perceived value of homes with high ceilings because they appreciate the extra space and modern feel. While other factors like your home's location and overall condition are more impactful, raising your ceilings can be a worthwhile investment if you plan to sell in the future.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.

If you are trying to sell a home with asbestos siding, most jurisdictions force you to disclose this in official documentation about the home. Some potential buyers may not want to purchase a home with asbestos siding, which could negatively affect their health if the siding becomes disturbed. However, as long as the siding is in good condition, some buyers may not see it as a disadvantage. You could take on the cost to replace asbestos siding if you have concerns over this material affecting your home’s resale value.
