"They were prompt, honest and very thorough while walking my property. The appraiser was extremely knowledgeable and attentive, even accepting of our 2 large breed St. Berdoodle dogs, who wanted nothing more but the appraisers attention. One of the best professional experiences I have had to date."

"I had a wonderful experience with Hart and Howard Real Estate! I spoke with Kristina originally, and she was really informative and helpful. I was looking for someone to do a private appraisal, so I didn't have a lender walking me through the process or anything. Turns out, I didn't need anybody but these two knowledgeable and friendly appraisers. They answered all of my questions and really helped me to understand how the process works. Caitlin is the appraiser who ended up doing my inspection. It was easy to schedule and she showed up on time which is a win in my book. I found Caitlin to be very professional and thorough in her inspection. The turn-around time for delivery of the report was accurate and very reasonable. With my limited experience in the industry, I felt that her evaluation made sense. They seemed to take all the particulars of my property into account in the comparable sales and analysis. I am quite pleased with my experience and would definitely recommend Hart & Howard for your appraisal needs!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.

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. Adding lighting to your flagpole will also have a positive impact on home value, as will trimming trees away from the new lawn addition.

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Estate shutters are considered a high-end window treatment that increases home value. As previously mentioned, this project comes with an ROI of up to 75%. Shutters can also improve your home’s energy efficiency, especially if you choose PVC or faux wood shutters, which will lead to long-term savings on your energy bills.
