Q: Do sellers usually lower their asking price after the appraisal?

• <div><p>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, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-find-home-appraiser.htm">hire another appraiser</a> to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn&rsquo;t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.</p></div>

Q: Do baseboards increase home value?

• <div><p>Fresh baseboards can increase a home&rsquo;s value because they refresh the look of your walls. This can make a good impression on buyers and potentially boost your home&rsquo;s resale value. This is particularly helpful if your existing baseboards are in bad shape, which can age the look of your walls. </p><p>Consider also investing in the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-install-shoe-molding.htm">cost to install shoe molding</a> for an extra-polished look that can further boost resale value.</p></div>

Q: Does mold affect appraisal?

• <div><p>Mold can greatly impact your home's appraisal and lower your selling price if your home's on the market. Home appraisers take mold into account when figuring out a property's overall value. Mold will lower your home's price because it poses a health risk to household members and can compromise the structural integrity of the house. Mold will require remediation, which in extreme cases can be costly, so that is factored into your home's appraisal as well.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a land survey and a plat?

• <div><p>A land survey includes the layout of a single property, including precise measurements and to-scale drawings of boundary lines, land improvements, and sometimes other features, like topography and drainage information. A plat map includes the layouts and boundary lines of several adjacent plots and basic structure measurements. Surveys are normally more valuable for homeowners and buyers, and plat maps are for governmental use.</p></div>

Q: How much does a home appraisal cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-home-appraisal-cost.htm">Home and property appraisals cost</a> about <b>$355</b> on average, ranging from <b>$250 to $500</b>, 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.</p></div>

Work was good. Some misscommunication over money. My only real issue is the mess in my yard. For the amount of money we paid it could have been graded better and some cheap seed could have been thrown down.

It went well. I will say that I misunderstood the services in the Groupon a bit. I thought it was to do as many returns and vents when it was just a few. So I had extra cost there. Also it didn't involve the real deep cleaning of the system as explained, as part of the process,. so I ended up...
