"Todd Aldrich from Allstate Apprairsers contacted me within minutes, and we set an appt. He arrived on time and spent 2 hours touring our property and residence. He took a lot of photos and already knew our tax apr. He was very thorough, measuring every room. He found 4 comparable homes in our area. It took one week to receive his report, as agreed. We are very pleased with his findings, and it has helped us set a price on our home, which we intend to sell. He was very professional, we would highly recommend his service, if you should require an appraisal. Mike & Dawn B."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

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.

An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.

Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.
