My experience in Northern Virginia is extensive. I?ve seen the area grow from one seven-story highrise in Rosslyn?with a smattering of pawn shops, lumber yards and used car dealerships thrown in?to the mini-city it is today. That growth has steadily spread west and south and shows few signs of stopping. I?ve lived and appraised all over Northern Virginia for a lot of years, from Arlington to Culpeper, from one-story ramblers to 100 acre horse farms and lots in between. If you need some help determining the value of your real estate, I?m able and ready to help. Give me a call and let?s chat.

"Alan Brown demonstrated exceptional professionalism, thoroughness, and attention to detail throughout the appraisal process. His clear communication, fairness, and deep market knowledge made the experience smooth and stress-free. He delivered a well-researched, accurate report in a timely manner, and went above and beyond to ensure every question was answered. I would highly recommend Alan to anyone in need of a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dependable appraiser."

I have been practicing real estate since 1997 and am a majority owner of the Keller Williams office in Charlotesville, VA. Alternate Phone: (434) 220-2200 Fax: (434) 220-1924

"Mary helped us to sell our house quickly and at a good price. She helped from start to finish. She recommended renovations that would yield good ROI (return on investment); recommended contractors and services; brought in designers and stagers to advise as needed; and helped us set a good asking price based on recent comps and current market conditions. Mary is professional, practical and down-to-earth. She laid out her recommendations, but then was respectful and supportive of our wishes and decisions. We got a very good offer within 2 days of listing our property and were in contract within 5 days. I highly recommend Mary Newton."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, home appraisers look at your windows when appraising your property to determine the market value of your home. They’ll factor in the type of windows, quality, condition, whether or not there are screens covering the windows, frame materials, size, insulation, and more to come up with an unbiased property assessment.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

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.
