"Mr. Spitzer was very professional and friendly. I was very anxious about getting my parent's home appraised, but Mr. Spitzer allayed my anxiety by explaining the appraisal process and being totally non-judgemental....the house is not in the best condition, so that was a concern of mine. I totally recommend and will hire Mr. Spitzer for the appraisal of my own home!"

"I needed an appraisal on a residential property located on a commercial lot. Joe did an initial assessment and concluded that I needed the services of a commercial appraiser. He was kind enough to call me back and explain all that. If I need the services of a residential appraiser in the future, I will not hesitate to contact him. He is very professional and a man of his word."

"Dondi was a professional gentleman who went about his business with speed and accuracy. Kept me informed about each step of the appraisal and when I would receive the written report. We had a 3 o'clock appointment for which he was early and he even called that he was at the property already. I would definitely refer him to my friends if they need his service. It was my pleasure to deal with him."

Property Appraiser FAQs, answered by experts

Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.

Mobile homes weigh anywhere between 45 to 50 pounds per square foot. Some newer options weigh up to 70 pounds per square foot. An average single-wide mobile home weighs 45,000 pounds, and a double-wide mobile home weighs about 70,000 pounds. Triple-wide mobile homes range from 90,000 to 100,000 pounds.

Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They’ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.

Yes, awnings can add value to a home, primarily by boosting its curb appeal and providing more usable outdoor space. While the exact monetary return on investment depends on the awning's size, style, and quality, they offer an excellent appeal factor to potential buyers. For example, an awning with a trendy metal roof can be particularly attractive. Even if the direct increase in resale value is modest, a well-chosen awning enhances the home's functionality and aesthetic.

Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they’re fully legal, which means they have proper ventilation and points of egress, as defined by your local building code. Simply partitioning off a space for a bedroom in an otherwise unfinished basement that isn’t a legal living space won’t affect your appraisal value.
