"I hired him to do an appraisal while my house was on the market for sale just to get a feeling of the market and prices for similar homes around me. I know that you never get the same appraisal from two different people. It does depend on a lot, and I do understand this, but the issue that after I hired him, he told me that he could not complete the appraisals because I overpaid when I bought this house and my house no way get the asking price. He refuses to complete the report, and honestly, he did not charge me and refused to take money or give me the appraisal, but I still paid him 150$ for his time and effort for going to the house and take pictures and all that beautiful jazz!! Anyway, he sent me an unusable report almost empty after I sent him the 150$, and at is completed empty with incorrect information about my house as well! I sold the home over asking price by 10k. The issue is when you hire someone, you expect you get the job done whatever the result it is. My two cents he is nice, but he wasted my time and did even did the job he was hired to do whatever the result of the report it is he should complete the job. Honestly, because of him, I accept the first offer I got. This is my story and its your call to hire him or not, but I had to share my experience with this company."

"Brian Butcher got back to me very quickly after contacting home advisor. He responded quickly to all my messages. He came to do the appraisal on my schedule. He was prompt for the appointment and had done his homework on my property before the appointment. He was friendly and efficient. The appraisal report was completed when he said it would be. The appraisal was thorough and priced fairly. I would absolutely recommend appraisals by Brian Butcher."

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on the size of the home, the appraisal itself can take several hours. After the appraiser’s visit is complete, it can take between a few days and a few weeks to get the report back. This timeline is largely dependent on the appraiser’s workload, research requirements, efficiency, and other factors.

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.
