Customers say: Quick response

"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 recently helped my family to sell our place in Carrboro. With his breath of knowledge and skillset, we were able to get multiple offers to sell the property above our asking price. Larry was also our buyer's agent of the same property more than 10 years ago. We have to say from both experiences that he's a truly amazing buyer's agent and seller's agent. Larry knows the ins and outs of the real estate market in the triangle area and NC. He works relentlessly for his clients and is always so responsive and honest that we will take his advice without any second guessing. In addition, Larry always keeps us in loop with every single step in the buying and selling process. He has done a great job with our negotiation. Based on the experience above, we truly think Larry is a first-rate real estate agent whom we would recommend without any reservations."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.

The average cost for a home or property appraisal is about $355, with prices typically ranging from $250 to $500. The final cost is influenced by several factors, including the property's size, age, location, and how it compares to other homes in the area. Appraisals for larger, older, or non-conforming properties often cost more. While a single-family home appraisal usually costs between $300 and $400, appraising a multi-family home can range from $500 to $1,000 due to its increased size and complexity.

A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.
