"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."

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

Ideally, you’d never pay more than the appraised value for a home, but there are some instances where it makes sense to do so. For example, if your current living arrangements are no longer viable and you need a place to move into quickly, paying more than the appraised value might be in your best interest to secure a new home. Additionally, if you’re buying in a hot market, overpaying for the home might be necessary to overcome the competition.

A comprehensive smart home system can be really attractive to buyers and increase the value of your property. Components such as a smart security system, smart lawn and garden systems, and smart appliances can all drive up the value of your property.

Land doesn’t depreciate in the same way that a house, vehicle, or other property does, but it can lose value based on various factors. Environmental changes, nearby development, zoning changes, and economic downturns can all cause land to lose value over time. Value is a comparative figure, so as other related factors change, so can land’s value.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.
