"It went very well... he was very easy to work with and he went beyond just the appraisals - taking the time to educate us, not only about our pieces, but the jewelry industry in general. He tried to help us figure out how to get top dollar for our items based on his experience and expertise. Two notes for future clients: (1) make sure you can read the actual hand-written appraisal, as - not being familiar with "jewelry lingo", I can not read/understand some of what he wrote which is critical when trying to describe an item to potential buyers. (2) He charged $10, for each item - so, in our case that was $40 - to take "high quality photos" (taken with his phone) to email to us. But the photos we paid for came out no better than what we could have done ourselves with our own phones. I had to edit his photos to get the depth of color and details of the pieces - his were very light and you couldn't see the details. Both of these issues are just to give potential customers a Heads Up. Other than those two issues - it was a great experience and education. I am very glad we got to meet him; he shows all signs that he not only knows his business inside and out, he also came across as very honest - which is key when doing this sort of thing... he knows an enormous amount about the entire jewelry / precious & semi-precious gems / gold & silver / craftsmanship industry. I look forward to continue to work with him in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Antiques and Jewelry Appraisals questions, answered by experts

Yes, installing a tennis court can be a worthwhile home improvement project that adds value to your property. The potential increase in value can range from $20,000 to $150,000, and in some cases, the return on investment can cover more than 60% of the installation cost. However, the impact on value heavily depends on the size of your property. For homes with multiple acres, a tennis court is often a valuable amenity. In contrast, for homes on smaller lots, installing a court can decrease the property's value because it consumes a significant portion of the usable yard space. It's crucial to consider your property size and the remaining usable yard before proceeding.

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

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

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. 

Appraisals can come in above or below the list price or offer price for a property, and where it falls depends on many factors. Those include the condition of the property, the location, and the age of the home, but often, the condition of the market is the biggest determining factor. Where demand is high for properties, buyers compete with each other for homes, which tends to drive up offer prices above where appraisals come in. Where demand is low, you’ll often see the opposite happening.
