"Tim was great. Very friendly, punctual, good customer service. The actual property appraisal itself (very subjective in nature), I felt, was quite low in value compared to what I expected. I was expecting my property to appraise much higher. Thankfully, I stuck with my gut when listing my home for sale."

"Kyle did a great job. He came in with a credible appraisal that allowed us to avoid an outrageously high proposed increase in valuation. We were the able to work with the city to agree on a "concurrence" - an agreed valuation. He also was very respectful of us and our property while doing the appraisal."

"We worked with Tom at Edge Home Finance after our first lender gave us some difficulty with the appraisal. Tom coordinated a new appraisal and had the loan ready to close in record time. There weren't any snags in the underwriting process and communication was fast and accurate."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

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.
