"I had great service! The agent who did the faucets was very polite, and professional. He did a great job, our faucets are nice and sturdy. On the washing machine issue, the agents that arrived were also polite and professional. The agent said that the machine needed to be replaced. Fortunately, the coverage I had allowed me to be approved to purchase a new one! I guess I made the right (CHOICE HWS)"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Typically during transactions or refinancing, or whenever significant improvements are made.

No, the appraisal value comes from an appraiser and is a professional opinion of value based on property location and condition, while the market value is determined solely by what buyers are willing to pay for your home. Lenders normally use appraised values to ensure they’re staying within target loan-to-value (LTV) ratios—the market value is simply what the home sells for. Appraised value can sit above or below market value.

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. 

A shed that connects to water or electrical services is likely to be assessed for property taxes; however, tax assessments vary around the country. Since every state and local municipality differ regarding property taxes, you should contact your city to determine whether or not you’re required to pay property taxes. Some states consider sheds or detached garages taxable if they have water, sewer, and electricity installed.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.
