"I had a rush job. Dan got in touch with me immediately, scheduled a convenient time for the appraisal, answered my questions before, during, and after the appraisal, and came in at the price he had originally quoted. I was very happy with his performance."

"My husband and I were recently blessed to have Anthony work with us in selling our home, as well as well as Theresa, one of company's agents, worked so aggressively to find us our new beautiful home. Every step of the way, was at such a personal level, understanding our needs, tolerating my stress, and always responding personally, no matter how big or small the question or situation. They were just amazing with us. We are so thankful for Anthony and Theresa, to make what we thought was going to be one of the most stressful times in our lives, to be literally one of the most exciting and enjoyable times for us !! You guys rock !! ❤️George & Carrie Parker"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.

Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

Costs depend on the property size, audit complexity, and whether additional testing (e.g., blower door) is included.

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.
