Accent Realty Service

Appraisal Real Estate Service,

About us

Accent Realty Service is a professional appraisal company. Please be advised that we give you an economic evaluation of your property. (That is, I can tell you what it's worth). However, I AM NOT A SURVEYOR. If you have property boundary issues you need a surveyor (I get a lot of requests for surveys). Also, if you are looking to refinance, PLEASE contact your lender first as they typically require that their own appraiser do the job. And one last condition, I am certified residential only. If your property is commercial, you need to contact commercial, or "general" appraiser. I have been serving southwest Pennsylvania in the real estate industry for over 45 years. In the 1990's I was designated as Area Management Broker for HUD. My responsibilities included the appraisals of all FHA properties. I covered all of southwest PA. After my contract expired I continued to work these areas giving me a keen knowledge of the neighborhoods of southwestern Pennsylvania.

I spoke with Mr Paskan who immediately returned my call and set up a date to appraise my house. He is very professional and he took his time to explain and answer my questions. When the time comes to get an appraisal I highly recommend Accent Realty.

I asked for an appraisal to get a professional idea of the value of the house. I doubted that the real estate agent was getting the true value, as agents mainly focus on location, house age, and living area. In my case, I fully remodeled the house in the last decade and made usable and livable both the attic and the basement. I replaced all the floors, painted all the walls, fully updated the kitchen, and turned a small bedroom into a large bathroom. Furthermore, I changed all the radiators, replaced roofs, added mini splits units in two bedrooms and the attic, and this 2022 installed a new furnace. Ed was on time and submitted me the report very fast, in just two days. The report, overall, looks good in terms of structure and content. However, I think the appraisal was not worth to do. The report was inaccurate. For example, it said 2 bathrooms instead of 2.5 and said the heating system was electric and based on mini splits. The heating system is based on natural gas. I have eight radiators all over the house that are heated by a brand-new furnace that I took the care to show to Ed. The appraiser valued the house in $140,000. When I mentioned the inaccuracies to Ed, he answered promptly and updated the value to $145,000. I put it for sale for $90,000 more, a value my realtor and I share is closer to the market value. If we are off, I am sure it is not by far. In sum, the appraisal was not accurate and did not provide a realistic price. My suggestion is to do your own research using Zillow and other specialized websites and to use them as references for market prices.
Response from Accent Realty Service

"The value of the subject was determined by the most similar sales available in the subject market area. My final opinion of value being off by almost $100,000? I wish Ignacio well, and hope he proves me wrong by selling it for a higher value. But for almost a hundred thousand dollars more? I sincerely doubt it. Zillow and other automated value sites are the least reliable and the last place one should look for an opinion of value!"
