When this appraisal helps
A purchase, refinance or personal property decision may call for an independent opinion of value. Tell Scott who will use the report and what decision it needs to support.
What the work considers
The agreed scope guides the property research, observation and market analysis. Relevant property characteristics, condition, improvements and comparable sales help support the opinion of value.
Start with the right information
- Property address and property type
- Purpose of the appraisal and intended users
- Details of recent improvements or known condition issues
From request to report
Send the property address and purpose. Scott reviews the assignment, discusses the fee and timing, and confirms access needs. Research and analysis follow before delivery of the report for its agreed intended use.
A question worth asking
Is an appraisal the same as a home inspection?
No. An appraisal develops an opinion of value. A home inspection evaluates the condition of building systems. One does not replace the other.
How much does an appraisal cost?
The fee depends on the property, location and assignment requirements. Send the property address and purpose so Scott can review the scope and provide a quote.
How long will it take?
Scheduling and completion depend on the assignment and current availability. Mention any deadline when you contact Scott; timing is confirmed before work begins.
An appraisal is an opinion of property value. Your attorney, accountant, lender or other adviser should confirm requirements for your particular matter.
