"Appraiser David Thomason appraised the house we were hoping to buy astonishingly low. It was lower than either the buyer's agent or the seller had ever seen. The house is a full gut remodel, remodeled by one of the agencies with the best reputations in Austin. He actually appraised it for $14,000 *less* than it was appraised for before it was remodeled, and he appraised it for $11,000 less than a much smaller house right down the street that was just sold. He only used comps in a much less desirable neighborhood. We thought something must have been wrong, so we sent the appraisal from before the remodel, the appraisal of the house down the street, a list of upgrades (which he'd previously refused to consider), and a number of additional comps showing just how far off he was. He said he would only consider three comps--too much else to read, I guess. So we sent him the three that seemed like the best. He wouldn't consider two, because he decided, for no listed explanation, that they were "of significantly higher quality"--again, every part of this house was just remodeled by a top firm in Austin--and did consider one "of slightly higher quality." That house was almost 400 square feet smaller than ours and in a less desirable area where home prices are lower, but still appraised for almost $45,000 more than ours. Despite "considering" it, he didn't change his opinion. We're not really sure what's wrong with this place or this guy, but I would strongly recommend against using them."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Wainscoting isn’t a design element that can be directly tied to an increased house price. Despite that, it is a highly marketable element that can generate significant interest from potential buyers who enjoy the style, and is relatively inexpensive to remove for those who don’t. If you are on the fence about paneling, just know that it certainly wouldn’t result in depreciation of your home’s value—usually the opposite. 

Home and property appraisals cost about $355 on average, ranging from $250 to $500, depending on the size of the home and property, age of the property, comparability to nearby homes, and location. While single-family homes typically cost between $300 and $400 to appraise, multi-family home appraisal can cost $500 to $1,000 due to the increased size and building complexity.

Ensure the property is clean, provide access to all areas, and supply relevant documents, such as recent upgrades or tax records.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

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.
