Q: Does a bump-out add value to your home?

• <div><p>Yes, a bump-out in any room, whether it&rsquo;s the bedroom, bathroom, or kitchen, increases home value. Bump-outs add square footage and create a more modern, appealing look, which are proven ways to increase home value. On average, bump-outs offer an ROI between 30% and 50%. </p></div>

Q: Who pays for a home appraisal?

• <div><p>The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How can I make sure my property gets the highest appraisal possible?

• <div><p>While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home&rsquo;s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits&mdash;an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.</p></div>

Q: How long does an FHA appraisal take?

• <div><p>Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser&rsquo;s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser&rsquo;s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.</p></div>
