"I recently decided to sell my condo and wanted to make an educated decision on what the list price should be so i decided to get my condo appraised. I came onto Homeadvisor and entered the required information. The following more i had a email response from Dondi of Calstin Appraisal Services. We ended up speaking later that morning and by the the end of the call i had the appraisal scheduled for later that day. Dondi gave me all the particulars and i gave him the information he needed so I was comfortable with him doing the appraisal. Totally fantastic on that point as i was looking for the appraisal to be done asap. He came out to my property, did what he had to do and left my condo locked up tight because i wasnt able to be there. Dondi was so polite too. Got my appraisal within a couple of days and boy was he thorough. The appraisal report gave me tons of info and the value was in the range of what i expected. Thoroughly happy with his service and would have no issue recommending him to anyone looking for appraisal services. Thanks Dondi"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Ideally, you’d never pay more than the appraised value for a home, but there are some instances where it makes sense to do so. For example, if your current living arrangements are no longer viable and you need a place to move into quickly, paying more than the appraised value might be in your best interest to secure a new home. Additionally, if you’re buying in a hot market, overpaying for the home might be necessary to overcome the competition.

The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:

  • Single-family homes: $300–$400

  • FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500

  • Condominium: $300–$500

  • Multi-family home: $500–$1,000

  • Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000

  • Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000

  • Raw land: $1,000–$8,000

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.

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.
