My main focus are within the Drone Services I offer. Ranging from photo/videography to Roofing Inspections and Construction Progression, almost anything that needs a view from the sky. I have my part 107 sUAV(Drone) certification, which is a mandatory requirement to enable a business to participate in commercial opportunities with a Drone. I have over 1500 Hours of flight time in producing hundreds of videos and thousands of photos. Beyond my 30+ years of photo/video experience, I would say that the workflow I have created keeps me front-of-mind when it comes to my clients. Both on-site and post production deliverables are completed in a timely manor and at the highest quality.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, experienced appraisers handle a variety of property types with tailored methods.

While a single shelf here and there doesn’t add value to your home, a built-in bookcase can increase your home’s value under the right circumstances. Not every built-in bookcase works in your favor here—those built from high-quality materials tend to provide a better ROI. If you’re looking for your bookcase to work for your home’s value, consider having a professional build it with luxury hardwood.

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.

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.
