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

Typically during transactions or refinancing, or whenever significant improvements are made.

Installing a flagpole can improve your home’s curb appeal, so it will often have a modest positive impact on your property value. You’ll see a much larger bump in property value if you install a custom wooden flagpole than you would if you install a standard aluminum pole.
