"They did a detailed job of appraising my property and (at my request) pointing out items that could be fixed or corrected to help increase the property's value if they were acted on. The appraisals were only for my knowledge of the value and were not needed by any banks or for any other considerations other than the sale price. I had them do an appraisal of the "as-is" value as well as a second one for "after-repaired-value" so I could see if renovations were worth the cost vs benefit. Because of this approach, and the suggestions for improvement, I have a much more solid idea of what I want to do with the property in preparation for sale. Thank you for the help! :-)"

"Brian is great to work with. He provided an appraisal of a very outdated home that needed a major rehab. It was helpful to have the appraisal since we had no idea what the home was worth in its condition. His fee was very reasonable and the appraisal was close to what the home ultimately sold for. I highly recommend Brian Butcher!"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Ensure the property is clean, provide access to all areas, and supply relevant documents, such as recent upgrades or tax records.

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.

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.
