"Hired to do valuation of a manufactured home - not on land. Gave appraisal comparison properties included land. therefore not an accurate valuation. Thought salesperson understood nuance."

"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 worked exclusively with Ms. Crystal MacHale. Her business was one of about 4-5 referred to me for a real property retrospective appraisal. Rainier Appraisal Service LLC was the first company to contact me. Ms. McHale was very pleasant, answered all of my questions and was able to perform the appraisal in a couple of days. However, I did reach out to other companies who provided quotes, but their dates did not coincide with the needed time frame. The fees were all about the same. Experience and previous reviews were instrumental in my decision. I enjoyed Ms. McHale's follow up and ability to provide a comprehensive report. Thank you, Ms. McHale for your excellent customer service."

"I got three appraisals and this was by far the most thorough report. They spent more time here than the other two appraisers put together. They were a little more expensive but well worth it."

"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!"

"Marketplace Homes has managed two residential rental properties for me, and everything has always been very easy. They coordinate showings, negotiated rent with tenants, and hired contractors as needed at each property. I would use them for any rental property I have in the future!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

Mobile homes weigh anywhere between 45 to 50 pounds per square foot. Some newer options weigh up to 70 pounds per square foot. An average single-wide mobile home weighs 45,000 pounds, and a double-wide mobile home weighs about 70,000 pounds. Triple-wide mobile homes range from 90,000 to 100,000 pounds.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.
