"Our experience working with Tracy Simpson unfortunately fell short of expectations. We proactively requested a home appraisal to guide our pricing strategy for relisting, but the final report was delivered five days later than agreed upon, and only after multiple follow-ups. The comparable properties used in the valuation raised concerns. One was a past sale from 2024 (when several 2025 options were available), and another was a pending listing with known issues, as disclosed by its agent, and at a much smaller size. When we asked for clarification on why these properties were selected over more relevant recent sales included in our realtor?s CMA, the explanation focused more on why our home didn?t match one specific sale rather than justifying the chosen comparables - which differed significantly in age, upgrades, and size. We requested time to discuss and it was ignored. "

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

The main purpose of a home inspection is to assess the overall condition of a home. It looks at major systems, like electrical and plumbing, and considers the long-term safety of the home. In contrast, a home appraisal sets out to estimate a home’s fair market value, often for lending purposes. At about $350, a home appraisal costs about the same as an average home inspection.

Mortgage underwriting is often the next step after an appraisal, and this process can take anywhere from a week to a month or more. The timeline depends on the mortgage lender’s requirements, how quickly the buyer gets the required documentation to their lender, and whether there are any issues during the underwriting process.

If you’re selling a home and the appraisal comes in lower than an offer, you’re effectively getting more for your home than it’s worth. If you’re a buyer, it means you may be overpaying. Some buyers may try to reduce their offer amount to match the appraisal, but if they signed an agreement already at the offer price and the agreement didn’t make the sale contingent on the appraised value, there’s often no option to negotiate. Keep in mind that a low appraisal may push your loan-to-value ratio too high, meaning a lender may not give you a mortgage.

You can find ranch-styled homes around the North, West, and Midwest regions. Some of the states where they’re more common are California and Texas. However, it’s worth noting that you can technically find these houses across the country since there’s nothing stopping homeowners from building one—unless lack of land is an issue.

For homeowners who love the charm and character of historic homes, renovating is well worth the invested cost. Keep in mind, though, that historic homes often need more extensive work than you might think at first, so be sure you know exactly what needs to be done so you can decide for yourself if the time, money, and effort are worth it for you.
