"Tracy Simpson was very professional throughout the process and the appraisal was thorough and completed in a timely manner. I used the appraisal along with comps from my realtor to confirm my asking price. Although the market is crazy right now, her assessment helped me determine the optimal price to maximize exposure. I had 32 showings and 7 offers within the first 3 days."

"David Ausborn left a message on my telephone answering machine on Sunday. He was courteous, and changed the time of his appointment from 12:00 noon to 4:00 PM without any fuss. He answered all of my questions, and his meticulous APPRAISAL Report is going to save me $2,700 when I use it to appeal my Johnston County Property tax evaluation."

"Larry Tollen is an experienced real estate professional, who was my agent in selling my first townhouse, as well as the purchase and recent sale of my second townhouse. Both homes sold in less than 30 days! Larry truly understands all aspects of the home buying/selling process. In particular, his advice on the pricing and marketing for the two townhouses I sold was invaluable, as was his experience in negotiating contract terms and home inspection repair requests. Larry’s extensive experience in the Triangle housing market was also invaluable, so much so that I quickly learned to trust his opinion of the homes we viewed. Larry treats his clients like family and always makes himself available for questions, updates, etc. Overall, I have been incredibly pleased with Larry and cannot thank him enough for helping me to buy and sell my previous homes. I plan on working with Larry for all future home purchases. If you are in doubt, let me reassure you that you are in good hands with Larry."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.

Ideally, you’d never pay more than the appraised value for a home, but there are some instances where it makes sense to do so. For example, if your current living arrangements are no longer viable and you need a place to move into quickly, paying more than the appraised value might be in your best interest to secure a new home. Additionally, if you’re buying in a hot market, overpaying for the home might be necessary to overcome the competition.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

Ensures accurate valuation reflecting current market conditions, assisting in financial decisions.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room).
