Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

No, the appraisal value comes from an appraiser and is a professional opinion of value based on property location and condition, while the market value is determined solely by what buyers are willing to pay for your home. Lenders normally use appraised values to ensure they’re staying within target loan-to-value (LTV) ratios—the market value is simply what the home sells for. Appraised value can sit above or below market value.

While it's smart to save up about 25 percent of the price of a home—to cover the down payment and closing costs—many loans require between less than 3% down to qualify. In either case, you'll need between 3 and 6 percent for the closing and moving costs as well as a strong financial history for mortgage approval.

Yes, high ceilings can increase your home's value when it's time to sell. According to some studies, homes with ceilings that are 9 feet or higher can sell for up to 6% more than homes with lower ceilings. While other factors like your home’s location and condition are more impactful, homes with high ceilings have a greater perceived value. Buyers often appreciate the extra space and modern feel that high or vaulted ceilings provide, making it a potentially worthwhile investment.

An attic ladder could increase your home’s value. This is especially true if there was no access before and you plan to turn your attic into a valuable bonus space, like a bedroom, home office, or a beautifully organized and updated storage space. Potential buyers would likely see easy attic access as an attractive selling point.

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.
