"Adrienne Hughes is hands-down the best realtor anyone can ask for. She helped us buy our first house back in 2015, and she has been on our team ever since! Buying your first house is a little scary. It’s a big commitment and in Austin, a frustrating process. I’m so grateful that I had Adrienne there to help me every step of the way. She was always quick to respond to any questions I had, and was always willing to show me a house, even on a Sunday! She is a highly skilled negotiator, and helped us find just the right house for our desired area and budget. Adrienne really looks out for her clients — she schooled us on the Homestead exemption and how to apply for it. She’s also been there to support us on any follow-up needs. Year after year, she’s provided us with comps for our our tax appraisals, and has given us suggestions on whether or not we should protest the estimated market value. She knows the ins and outs of the housing market like no other and has always been available to answer any questions we’ve had since our purchase. With Adrienne, you get not only a knowledgeable, dedicated realtor, but a lifelong ally in home ownership! If I’m ever in the market again to buy or sell, I would absolutely want to work with her again!"

"I was very pleasantly surprised that Gary was able to schedule my appraisal within a week of my request, considering how busy appraisers are this year due to the high number of property tax protests. He kept me informed of when he would arrive, was on time, immediately set to work upon arrival, and provided my appraisal report in less than a week. Very personable and answered all my questions. I would definitely use him again."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

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. 

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.
