"When she left her husband we worked it out with them to go when he was at Cedar Point to get her stuff out of the house. He was holding her stuff ransom. Unless she did what he wanted her to do then he wasn’t going to let her have her stuff, even though the court gave her this stuff. They were supposed to get together in the house and divide everything that was in the house that wasn’t on the list. He had a list of stuff he was to keep, a list of stuff she was to keep, and then the list of stuff they were to divide up. Unless she did what he wanted, he was going to be busy. We called them and checked with the prosecutor because the house is still in her name also and he said as long as her name is still on the house there is nothing to stop her from going in and getting her property. So while he took the kids to Cedar Point for his work picnic we went in and got her stuff, and JM Movers met us there. They moved from one street to the next and she wound up with more stuff than we anticipated. We didn't realize she had so much crap. So they had to make two trips. It's like so much for the first 4 hours and so much per hour after. So it wound up being the same price."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

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. 

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.

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.
