"I found Erik from Elite Appraisals through Angi. A local appraiser who we had worked with before passed away a couple years ago so sadly we needed a new contact and went to look on Angi. From the minute we submitted our info, Erik reached out to find out more about the project. He was very thorough in trying to understand our needs and the situation the bank was trying to appraise. We talked on the phone until he was clear about what we were asking. He then scheduled our appointment. We called to reschedule and he was very accommodating. He gave us a verbal bid over the phone and followed that up with a written contract, which was appropriately priced (we felt like it was a very good price).. He arrived on time as scheduled and took all the time that was needed to appraise the property! He was very professional. We all felt very comfortable with his assessment and service. He delivered the appraisal on time and weâ d recommend using this company to anyone based on our experience!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

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 there's not a lot of definite research, some experts suggest that an in-ground or wall-mounted basketball hoop can add value to your home by increasing curb appeal. In addition, having a basketball hoop is an attractive feature of a house since it promotes physical activity, especially for children.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

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.
