Appraisal Process

How It Works

1. Initial Property Inspection

We will visit the home to evaluate its condition, size, layout, and unique features. This includes examining both the interior and exterior to identify factors that affect value.

2. Comparative Market Analysis

We will research recent sales of similar single-family homes in the neighborhood. This helps establish a benchmark for determining the home’s current market value.

3. Adjustments and Calculations

In this step, adjustments are made to the value based on differences between the subject property and comparables, such as upgrades, condition, or lot size. These calculations ensure a fair and accurate valuation.

4. Final Appraisal Report

A detailed report is prepared summarizing findings, supporting data, and the estimated market value. This report is then delivered to the client, lender, or interested party for decision-making.
