"I hired George to sell the contents of my aunts estate because he was the most professional and knowledgeable of all the the estate sale companies and numerous dealers who I interviewed, . My aunt's estate had many quality antiques, jewelry, and household furnishing and I wanted the right company that would know what these items were worth and would have the following to get good prices. In the course of my research I found that George had been in the estate sale & antiques auction business for over 30 years and came highly recommended on many levels. He was written up in the Boston Globe antique section on many occasions and the national antiques paper "the arts and antiques weekly". I felt, at this point with such a wide experence in selling fine antiques and household items George would be the right estate company. He came to my aunt’s estate and went threw everything and found items that I thought were junk and I had planed to through away. Thank goodness he had the knowlege to recognize their value because he got a lot of money for these items. After George looked at everything, he photographed all the pieces that he thought would attract buyers to the sale and made a page on his website dedicated to my sale and it came out beautifully. He sent out over 2000 emails from his list of people who had attended and purchased items from pervious estate sales and auctions and also advertised on estate sale .org, which send out over 12,000 emails. He also advertised on Craig’s list. Prior to the sale he came to my aunts home and organized everything and set up jewelry cases with lights and by time he was finished the place looked like a show room. He schedule the sale on Saturday from 9am to about 2pm. The day of the sale there was over 100 people waiting outside. It was a bit chaotic at first but George and his crew handled the crowd with ease. After the sale, George explained that letting the whole crowd in, is a good strategy because it creates a buying pressure. He said people feel other people are looking over there shoulder wanting to buy the item they are looking at so they pay the price that George wants and everything goes very quickly. He also said that the people who come early have all the big money and are highly motivated to buy. Sounds complicated but he was right. George had five workers besides himself and they were very helpful and curtious, bring furniture and other items to peoples cars. The sale has a steady flow of people after the hectic first 2 hours with people buying items all day long and by the time he was finished most everything was gone and he made us a pile of money. I was so thankful we hired george to do this sale. Everything went perfectly without a hitch as he predicted. He is truly a professional and I have recommended him several times."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

While there’s technically no limit to the dollar amount you can borrow for a home addition, the standard limit is around 80% of the value the addition is expected to add to your home. That means you could feasibly borrow up to $80,000 if an appraiser determines that the addition or bump out will add $100,000 in value to your property. You might also be limited by your debt-to-income ratio or credit score.

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’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.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—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.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.
