Accent Realty Service is a professional appraisal company. Please be advised that we give you an economic evaluation of your property. (That is, I can tell you what it's worth). However, I AM NOT A SURVEYOR. If you have property boundary issues you need a surveyor (I get a lot of requests for surveys). Also, if you are looking to refinance, PLEASE contact your lender first as they typically require that their own appraiser do the job. And one last condition, I am certified residential only. If your property is commercial, you need to contact commercial, or "general" appraiser. I have been serving southwest Pennsylvania in the real estate industry for over 45 years. In the 1990's I was designated as Area Management Broker for HUD. My responsibilities included the appraisals of all FHA properties. I covered all of southwest PA. After my contract expired I continued to work these areas giving me a keen knowledge of the neighborhoods of southwestern Pennsylvania.

"Ed did a nice job. He was prompt, conscientious, and was able to provide quality work in a timely manner. "

My primary business is consulting on buildings that have construction defects that allow moisture intrusion, rot, mold, etc. I also work with builders on new buildings to assist in the sequencing and selection of products to prevent moisture intrusion, promote long-term building performance, ie., concrete curing, roof flashing, window and door installation, moisture barriers, basement waterproofing, etc.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Foundation cracks won’t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren’t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.

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.

To get the highest appraisal value possible for your home, make any necessary repairs and updates prior to the appraisal. Some examples of tasks include updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, renovate older areas of the home, and consider staging your home. Keep in mind that some aspects of the appraisal are out of your control, such as comparable properties nearby.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

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.
