"My wife and I recently sold our home with Hilton Realty Advisors and are now finishing the buying process.  Matt is a pleasure to work with. He is always upbeat, and ready for a challenge. He is very responsive to phone calls and emails regardless of time or day. Matt is prepared to answer the tough questions and give you honest answers. He is your advocate from the beginning to the end of the process. Matt has superior knowledge and is well respected among his peers. Matt demonstrates a love for his profession, his clients, and for his community. His firm?s dedication to serving the community was one of the things that made us choose Matt. We would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to family or friends for any real estate needs large or small. We both will consider Matt a friend long after this process is over.

"As much as I would like to say that my husband or I did "our due diligence" when it came to the home buying process, unfortunately, we did not. We knew absolutely nothing about purchasing a home. All we knew is we had decent credit scores, we'd finally saved the money for the down payment/closing costs & we had good paying jobs. In other words, we were ready, but didn't know where to start. We had had 4 other realtors prior to Dana but none of them gave off the "I'm here to help you" vibe like Dana. My biggest concern was that we were going to get another realtor who wasn't going to give it their all in helping us get the best deal for our buck but Dana did her thing. Dana was resourceful and very knowledgeable. I loved how she listened to our requests & discussed our options with us. I loved the fact that she was completely honest with us & kept it real & the thing I really appreciated about her was the fact that she went hard for us. Meaning, she asked questions for us that she knew that we wouldn't have known to ask, she wouldn't let us sign a shady contract (even though there was 2 that we would've moved forward on had she not firmly told us "no, she didn't like its terms"), & she didn't have us wasting time looking at houses that she knew we weren't interested in... I could go on & on... & really this review doesn't do the awesome job she did with us justice I was so comfortable with her that I felt like I was going house shopping with my mom. We were so confident that she was going to help us get a great deal that we trusted & heavily relied on her judgement & expertise & she delivered. She found us an excellent deal with our house. We've been in our home for almost a year now & whenever we receive a document regarding our home or if I have any questions related to our home, such as taxes or homestead or protesting taxes any of that stuff, I call/text Dana & even to this day, she comes to the rescue Dana Meeks... Best realtor ever"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The entire appraisal process takes from seven to 10 days. This timeline accounts for the many steps of the appraisal process, including the post-inspection report completed by the appraiser.

Home appraisal services include the following tasks:

  • Inspect home interior and exterior

  • Evaluate materials, features, fixtures, and renovations

  • Review comparable properties

  • Write an appraisal report

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

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. 

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

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