"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! :-)"

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

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.

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

The cost to appraise a home depends on the type. Common types include:

  • Single-family homes: $300–$400

  • FHA or VA single-family homes: $400–$500

  • Condominium: $300–$500

  • Multi-family home: $500–$1,000

  • Apartment building: $1,500–$3,000

  • Commercial properties: $1,400–$10,000

  • Raw land: $1,000–$8,000

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.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.
