"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, appraisals are often used for property tax appeals, estate planning, and determining market value.

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.
