"Paid $375 for a property evaluation that was $250,00.00 lower than what we were being taxed for. After questioning the evaluator,she reevaluated the property to be in line with tax appraisers. Don ' t know if this company is accurate in what they do."

"Jason Ray did the appraisal. Used the most ridiculous comps in the world, came in 42k less than list price. And charged $2,000 for the appraisal. Talk about highway robbery! When confronted with discrepancies in the chosen comps, he refused to evaluate further even to adjust for land value. Apparently in his eyes, land has no value. Comps he used had 0.5 acres, 1.5 acres and 4.0 acres... our property had 6.14 acres. All comps used had 3 bedroom homes, ours has 4. Nobody looking to purchase a 4/2 home with over 6 acres, would even consider looking at a 3/2 home with 0.5 acres! Other more reasonable comps were available that would support the list price of the home, he chose not to use them. Completely and utterly ridiculous. Charging that much for a half assed appraisal should be criminal and I pitty the fool who willingly hires this man for an appraisal, unless of course you like overpaying to get screwed out of a large chunk of money."

FAQs for property appraisal projects in Grandview, WA

An appraisal is an opinion of value, so anything that is expected to boost your home value is likely to work in your favor when it comes to the appraisal. Things like improving your curb appeal, painting, refinishing floors, and taking care of minor repairs are all good investments prior to ordering an appraisal. It’s also a good idea to clear out any clutter and complete a deep clean beforehand to show your property in the best light possible.

Appraisals aren’t required by law to complete a real estate transaction, but it’s unlikely that a lender will allow a buyer to close on a property without an appraisal, so, effectively, they are usually required. Your mortgage lender uses the property as collateral for your loan, and the appraisal is what the lender will base the mortgage on to confirm the value is there to justify their investment.

The average cost of a property appraisal is around $355, but different appraisers in your area could charge anywhere from $250 to $500. Appraisals for larger properties will often cost more, as will valuations for older properties. Appraisers will use homes in the surrounding area to help determine a valuation as well, so if your home doesn’t conform to the neighborhood standards, the valuation will require more work and will likely cost more.

A licensed appraiser is the only individual that can carry out a property appraisal. You should always check to ensure an appraiser you’re considering has the proper licensing from your state. Additionally, since an appraisal is meant to be an unbiased opinion of a property’s value, you should confirm that the appraiser doesn’t have ties to any other party in the sale of the property.

Anyone can hire a property appraiser to confirm the inherent value of a property, but the buyer or buyer’s lender will usually choose the appraiser and pay the individual for their opinion. It’s also not uncommon for the seller’s side in a real estate transaction to hire an appraiser in order to justify an asking price or negotiate a higher selling price.
