"I wholeheartedly recommend Kevin for any/all property appraisal needs. I requested a quote via Angie's List and he contacted me the very same day. He was able to schedule my appointment quickly and performed his services exactly as he described. He was thorough in appraising our property, and the report he sent was detailed and showcased how knowledgeable Kevin is. I found the pricing to be reasonable and I would definitely use his services in the future."

"I needed an appraisal of my property to assess value for my divorce proceedings. I called a few appraisers and decided to go with Craig Gehm Appraisals, as they were professional, able to work within my time frame and kindly answered all of my questions. On the day of my appointment, Craig was punctual and did a thorough walk through of my property. I didnâ t expect to receive my report for at least a week, however Craig sent the full report to me within 24 hours! The appraisal was just what I needed to help me through the process of equitable distribution in my divorce. I would highly recommend Craig Gehm Appraisals for any of your appraisal needs."

"See above.  Other than being misled by the offer, ie-not realizing that the reason for the appraisal was to obtain a mortgage only, I have no way to rate this service.  Please note, we did not use this service and have nothing negative or positive to say about this company.  Angie's List ought to have an Overall Rating for NA, like they do for the specifics.

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.

The cost ranges from $300 to $500, depending on the property's size and location. Due to their complexity, commercial appraisals may cost more.

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.

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

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.
