"I just appraised my mom's house with ValueSafe Appraisal Services and I highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for an accurate, reliable, and fair appraisal with excellent customer service. Aleksandra answered all my questions and I had many questions. Oleg was prompt, courteous, organized, and detailed in his assessment. I truly appreciate the fast turnaround time on receiving the appraisal report. It was also perfect that the appraisal was sent by email, with a downloadable pdf, so that I could quickly forward it to all the legal parties involved. Silvana K"

"I recently worked with Dan on a real estate appraisal. After speaking with a few appraisers, I chose Dan because he took the time to thoroughly explain the process, including IRS-qualified appraisal criteria, which made me feel the most comfortable. I was very impressed with his professionalism and expertise. He was punctual, thorough, and delivered a comprehensive report quickly. I highly recommend Dan and would work with him again in the future."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Estate shutters are considered a high-end window treatment that increases home value. As previously mentioned, this project comes with an ROI of up to 75%. Shutters can also improve your home’s energy efficiency, especially if you choose PVC or faux wood shutters, which will lead to long-term savings on your energy bills.

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.
