Ensures accurate valuation reflecting current market conditions, assisting in financial decisions.
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.
Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.
The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:
Single-family homes: $300–$400
FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500
Condominium: $300–$500
Multi-family home: $500–$1,000
Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000
Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000
Raw land: $1,000–$8,000
An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.
