"I was looking for an appraisal on the current house I was renting in order to see if it would be worth buying. The appraiser Dan was prompt in keeping our appointment, and he was very professional and extremely thorough in his appraisal of the property. One business day later, I received a report showing all of the information about the property and an assessment of what it was worth and the repairs that were needed. Dan went above and beyond my expectations and delivered excellent customer service. I received exactly what I needed on this appraisal and am very happy with the results of his assessment. I highly recommend NY Appraisers!"

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.

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.

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.

While there’s technically no limit to the dollar amount you can borrow for a home addition, the standard limit is around 80% of the value the addition is expected to add to your home. That means you could feasibly borrow up to $80,000 if an appraiser determines that the addition or bump out will add $100,000 in value to your property. You might also be limited by your debt-to-income ratio or credit score.
