"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

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.

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.

Around 1-2 weeks, including inspection and reporting time for an official evaluation.

While there's not a lot of definite research, some experts suggest that an in-ground or wall-mounted basketball hoop can add value to your home by increasing curb appeal. In addition, having a basketball hoop is an attractive feature of a house since it promotes physical activity, especially for children.
