Can I be present during the home appraisal?

• <div><p>You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.</p></div>

Q: Does a flagpole increase property value?

• <div><p>Installing a flagpole can improve your home&rsquo;s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You&rsquo;ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/helpful-tips-pruning-trees.htm">trimming trees</a> away from the new lawn addition.</p></div>

Q: Does board and batten increase home value?

• <div><p>If <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-install-board-batten-siding.htm">installing board and batten</a> fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn&rsquo;t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home&rsquo;s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home&rsquo;s price won&rsquo;t see a noticeable bump. </p></div>

Q: Does adding central air increase home value?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-units-central-air.htm">adding central air</a> can increase your home value by as much as 10%. Generally speaking, prospective buyers prefer a central AC system over a ductless system or room-by-room AC units. That&rsquo;s because central air conditioning blends into the home easier than individual room air conditioners and typically has less equipment to maintain.</p></div>

Q: Does home automation increase your property value?

• <div><p>In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner&rsquo;s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a <b>50% and 75%</b> return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner&rsquo;s insurance.</p></div>

We purchased our home through Bianco in December 2010. Judy M was our realtor, she took us around for 6 months trying to find the right house. Always friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared. Would highly recommend Judy to anyone! After the sale we kept in touch, and now we are selling our current...

The results couldn't have been better. The house was on the market for 4 days and we accepted an offer that was ABOVE the asking price. I've spent 30 years moving with the Air Force and have bought and sold many properties. Angela is simply the best realtor we have worked with in those 30 years.
