Customers say: Terrific value

"George called me as soon as I put a request in for my project. He accommodated my request to come early as I was requesting the appraisal as soon as possible because I was rushed. It requried a significant amount of effort to reach him. I personally was never able to call and talk to him. I had to call Angis List to get him to reply. He is a very good person, he did the job well, but lacked in communication. If I had time, I would definitely hire him again. If I dont have time, it would be difficult to work with him. He is a very affordable and reasonable person."

"Bob completed an appraisal on a residential property for me in late December. As accurately described by others, he is very professional. He also is patient, curious, and kind and, perhaps most importantly, is a careful listener. He made an effort to understand my specific circumstances. He addressed many of my questions before performing the work, and fielded a myriad of others during the on-site evaluation and after he provided the finished report. I would hire Bob again without hesitation. Excellent service. Excellent quality. Thank you, Bob!!!"

"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.

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

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.

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.
