Q: Who pays for a home appraisal?

• <div><p>The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do basement bedrooms count on an appraisal?

• <div><p>Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they&rsquo;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&rsquo;t a legal living space won&rsquo;t affect your appraisal value.</p></div>

Q: Is market value usually higher than appraised value?

• <div><p>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 &ldquo;seller&rsquo;s market,&rdquo; where there is an abundance of buyers, market value will likely sit higher than the appraised value because there&rsquo;s more demand for the low inventory of homes. In a &ldquo;buyer&rsquo;s market,&rdquo; where there are more homes than there are buyers, the market value is more likely to sit below the appraised value to entice buyers.</p></div>

Q: How do I get the highest appraisal possible?

• <div><p>To get the highest appraisal value possible for your home, make any necessary repairs and updates prior to the appraisal. Some examples of tasks include updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, renovate older areas of the home, and consider staging your home. Keep in mind that some aspects of the appraisal are out of your control, such as comparable properties nearby.</p></div>

Q: How long does the appraisal process usually take?

• <div><p>Around 1-2 weeks, including inspection and reporting time for an official evaluation.</p></div>

I hired Alamo Valuation for an appraisal of an investment property. The appraisal was thorough, completed on-time and at a fair price. The appraiser also communicated well throughout the process.

Perfectly. Arrived on time, got right to work, did a fantastic job. Removed and cleaned all screens as well as windows. Large house with 30-plus oversized widows, done in 2 hours. Much more for the money than I expected. Will use them again on another property if they service that area.
