"Bob Reamer offered the lowest price (by half, in one case) of 4 bids for a cottage appraisal. I confirmed the hire by phone on a Thursday, he was going to be in the area the next day so he visited the property on Friday, using a key I had directed him to in my absence. He did the paperwork search. I had the appraisal by email on Tuesday, paying by phone and debit card. He replied promptly to questions, welcomed a list of improvements since the initial purchase, saying more info was always helpful. Photos, floor plan with measurements, and comparables are all helpful, and he also provided both an Appraised Value and a Suggested Asking Price given the current market. Exactly what I needed to know, more promptly than I'd imagined. Great work. Recommended!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.

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

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area.
