Do I really need an appraisal?
You may need an appraisal if you want an independent opinion of your home’s market value. Appraisals are often useful for pre-listing decisions, estate or probate matters, divorce, tax planning, private sales, and situations where you need more than an online estimate.
How much does a home appraisal cost?
The cost of a home appraisal depends on the property type, location, complexity, and intended use of the report. A typical residential appraisal may range from a few hundred dollars and increase for larger, unique, rural, or complex properties. We can provide a free quote based on your specific property and appraisal needs.
What’s the difference between an appraisal and a home inspection?
An appraisal estimates the market value of a property. A home inspection evaluates the physical condition of the home, including systems, structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, and other components. An appraiser is focused on value; an inspector is focused on condition and repair issues.
How long does a home appraisal take?
The appraisal process depends on the property type, complexity, scheduling, and report requirements. The property visit may take less than an hour for many homes, while the full report may take several business days depending on research, analysis, and current workload.
