You need a number you can trust. Washington Appraisal Group delivers it.\n\nI'm Anthony, a Pennsylvania Certified Residential Appraiser serving Philadelphia, Bucks, Montgomery, Chester, Delaware, Berks, Lancaster, Lehigh and Northampton counties.\n\nHomeowners, executors and families call me when a value has to hold up in front of an attorney, a judge, a county board or a buyer. I inspect your home in person, measure it, and compare it to the sales that match it. Then I walk you through the report in plain English.\n\nI have no stake in the number. I don't work for the buyer, the seller or the bank, and that independence gives the report its weight.\n\nDivorce. Estate and date of death. Property tax appeal. PMI removal. Pre-listing and pre-purchase.\n\nCertified in Pennsylvania. Insured. Reports built to USPAP.\n\nI answer my own phone. Call today and I'll schedule your inspection this week.

"We were advised that it would take 4-6 months because of his work backlog and it took four. The cost was more than I expected, $400, because of the many bushings replaced. I believe I received excellent and honest service."

Antiques and Jewelry Appraisals questions, answered by experts

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

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.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.
