"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."

"We’re very happy with the re-financing process through Westwood Mortgage. Erika was very detailed in her emails to make sure we didn’t miss anything. She treated me with the utmost respect, and made me feel less stressed. I could ask her any questions without feeling like it was a silly question, and she responded very quickly.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.

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.

In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.

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

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.
