"It went very well. He listened to all my ideas and even proposed one of his own as we were going through tweaks to the initial design for the engagement ring and wedding band. I wound up incorporating his idea into the final design. He was very good about giving his professional opinion on my ideas especially if he felt that an idea would not look good, which I appreciated. He was also very good about letting me know if any of the design tweaks would add cost to the initial quote. Once the final design was achieved he had the rings crafted and back to me in two weeks. He also promptly got the bridal set appraised when asked.



The only compliant would be that when I would directly ask him for his recommendation on how to make the engagement ring more feminine he had no recommendations and instead waited for me to propose a few ideas and then he would give his opinion on if he felt the idea(s) would make the ring look more feminine.

Antiques and Jewelry Appraisals questions, answered by experts

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

The differences between market value and appraised value depend on the local market, so they can match, or either one can be higher than the other. In a “seller’s market,” where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there’s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a “buyer’s market,” where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.

Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.

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.

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.
