"We contacted Team Sheets (recommended by Dave Ramsey) on February 7th describing our remote situation. Our tenants moved out of the house on March 7th. Team Sheets swooped in immediately and gave a detailed assessment of the condition of the property. Wendi provided honest counsel in relation to selling "as is" and also detailed accurate estimates for some work that would ensure the property brought top dollar. We were in contact with Wendi almost daily while the contractors conducted the work. Team Sheets was there every step of the way providing progress updates and recommendations. I can't even imagine the behind the scenes work. Wendi listed the house on April 11th at a price she discussed with us the first week. I lost count of how many showings were held on the April 12th. We had four offers that day. With expert guidance, we accepted an offer $15k over our asking price. Wendi, Don and Autumn took care of the rest. Autumn set us up with a Power of Attorney for Don to represent us at closing. Flawless! Closing occurred on May 15th. Our profit was wired to our bank account and available immediately! Bottom line: Professionals - Clear concise timely communication - Extremely thorough - All the tools necessary to seal the deal with proven results!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Xeriscaping can absolutely increase your home value, but the return on investment (ROI) depends on where you live and how prevalent xeriscaping is in your area. In drought-prone climates, xeriscaping can boost your curb appeal and make your home more appealing to buyers due to the reduced maintenance and watering costs. However, in areas where xeriscaping isn’t the norm, some buyers may be willing to pay less for a xeriscaped property if they don’t like the appearance.

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.

Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.

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. 

The entire appraisal process takes from seven to 10 days. This timeline accounts for the many steps of the appraisal process, including the post-inspection report completed by the appraiser.

Home appraisal services include the following tasks:

  • Inspect home interior and exterior

  • Evaluate materials, features, fixtures, and renovations

  • Review comparable properties

  • Write an appraisal report
