Is an A-frame home cheaper to build than a traditional house?

• <div><p>An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between <b>$100 to $200 per square foot</b>, which is comparable to the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-build-house.htm">cost of a traditional home</a>.

Q: What causes the cost of homeowners insurance to increase?

• <div><p>Insurance companies weigh the amount of potential liabilities on your property to increase (or decrease) the cost of your home insurance. They will use several factors to decide if there are more chances for peril or injury to take place at your home. These factors include your location (whether you live in an area with high risk for natural disasters), the age and condition of your home, and whether you have any &ldquo;attractive nuisances&rdquo;&mdash;features that both increase the aesthetic of your home and potential for injury&mdash;like a pool or treehouse. </p></div>

Q: How often should I have my property appraised?

• <div><p>Typically during transactions or refinancing, or whenever significant improvements are made.</p></div>

Q: How much does a home appraisal cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-home-appraisal-cost.htm">Home and property appraisals cost</a> about <b>$355</b> on average, ranging from <b>$250 to $500</b>, depending on the size of the home and property, age of the property, comparability to nearby homes, and location. While single-family homes typically cost between $300 and $400 to appraise, multi-family home appraisal can cost $500 to $1,000 due to the increased size and building complexity.</p></div>

Q: How can I find a trustworthy appraiser?

• <div><p>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.</p><p>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.</p></div>

Brianna was great! We decided to use paint I had in the adjacent area and she made a suggestion that worked out real well. I'm very happy with how the paint job turned out, and will hire her again.

"My father passed away so we needed an appraisal of my childhood house to settle the estate. Jarrad was very professional and knowledgeable of the market. His appraisal was easy to read and share with my siblings. Also, I referred my friend over to him. He was getting a divorce and needed an evaluation. Thank you for taking care of my family and my friend."
