HOW OUR HOME APPRAISAL PROCESS WORKS
Thoroughness and transparency are the fundamental values for conducting honest and accurate real estate appraisals. Using these values as guiding principles, we calculate true values that all parties can trust. Let’s examine our process in greater detail.
The preliminary step is a complete inspection of the property, which involves ensuring the property’s boundaries are recorded properly, investigating whether the listed features, rooms, and amenities match the listing, and making sure we check for any additional defects or unreported issues. Using this collected data, we can then get down to the business of calculating a property’s value.
We generally use two to three different methods to calculate a property’s value.
- The first is the comparable sales method. In this valuation method, we compare what your home has and doesn’t have as compared to other comparable homes in your area. Using this comparison, we adjust the value of your home according to how it compares with its neighbors.
- The second is the cost method. We project how much it would cost to completely construct your property from scratch, including wages for workers and cost of materials. This approach helps us set the maximum price your property is worth.
- The third valuation method is the income valuation method. This is really only commonly used for rental properties. We compare the income generated from the property being sold to the income generated by other rental properties in the area to adjust the over valuation.
COST OF REAL ESTATE APPRAISAL
The Appraising Group has streamlined its real estate appraisal process so that our services are efficient and cost-effective for our clients. However, there are always factors that can cause the cost to vary. Some of these factors include:
- Size of the home
- Condition of the property
- Level of detail involved in the appraisal; a large home or property can impact the cost of the appraisal
