"Chris at Argo Appraisals very quickly responded to my request and was really thorough in his assessment of our property. We contacted him for an appraisal for property tax appeal. After he reviewed the tax records while on the phone with me and then took the time to also quickly appraise other similar properties to ours, he called me right back and told me that a new appraisal would not yield the result we would need to appeal or reduce our tax liability. However, he did ascertain that the property did indeed have a discrepancy in the tax assessor's square footage and recommended that we call him and ask them to come out to remeasure. That should result in lower square footage than they show on file and lower taxes :D. Chris was so amazing and helpful and really dug deeper in order to be help. I highly recommend him and will refer and look forward to working with him in the future. Chris goes above and beyond in his appraisal work. Love his ethic and integrity. You can't go wrong by working with Argo Appraisals!!!"

"I hired Schubert Appraisal, LLC. Abe Schubert responded virtually instantaneously, showed up to perform the appraisal same day I requested assistance. He completed and delivered the final appraisal, also same day. The price for his services was far better than others I shopped that later responded. He exceeded all expectations, responsiveness, professionalism, the final product. Not sure if I was just lucky, but more probably he is just that good. No, he is not family, never met him before, but calling it as I see it, he deserves a great review."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.

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.

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

Your home insurance company may allow you to use an appraisal instead of an inspection when you apply for coverage. Keep in mind that despite this, an appraisal is far less detailed than the different types of home inspections available and may not reveal potential risks that you’ll want to know about.
