Residential Real-Estate Appraisals
"My review has nothing to do with the valuation and appraisal he has done, but they way the whole thing was performed. 1) In Jan, I and another party decided to have valuation of our property and do a mutual appraisal. We got recommendation for Mr Payam and decided to go with him 2) Both the other party and I contacted him. I told him this is a mutual appraisal and the other party will contact him. He decides to unilaterally enters contract with other party. 3) I had a series of calls with him. Discussing the details of the property, No of bedrooms, not disturbing the tenants, type of appraisal which he got my approval for drive-by. 4) Before the appraisal gets done, he calls me and says the other party also approved drive-by inspection. Fine. He also tells me roughly how much he will appraise this for and that he will do the appraisal in 48 hours. 5) After the appraisal gets done, he never sends me the report. We made a contact with him and he says he is out of town and he sends it once he gets back. Guess what, i did not receive it. After 2 months, then all of a sudden I get the report last Saturday and when I questioned him why he did not send me the report earlier, he replies that he was not hired by me and he did not have any contact info from me. We had talked many times and if I was not hired then why he discussed certain aspects of the appraisal with me? then why all of a sudden you send me the report then after 2 months? This is actually not legal for him to do to discuss all matters related to this appraisal with me and send me the report if I was not a party in this appraisal. When I reminded him that we had many calls, he denied having any calls with me. Very dishonest."

An appraisal is an opinion of value, so anything that is expected to boost your home value is likely to work in your favor when it comes to the appraisal. Things like improving your curb appeal, painting, refinishing floors, and taking care of minor repairs are all good investments prior to ordering an appraisal. It’s also a good idea to clear out any clutter and complete a deep clean beforehand to show your property in the best light possible.
Appraisals aren’t required by law to complete a real estate transaction, but it’s unlikely that a lender will allow a buyer to close on a property without an appraisal, so, effectively, they are usually required. Your mortgage lender uses the property as collateral for your loan, and the appraisal is what the lender will base the mortgage on to confirm the value is there to justify their investment.
The average cost of a property appraisal is around $355, but different appraisers in your area could charge anywhere from $250 to $500. Appraisals for larger properties will often cost more, as will valuations for older properties. Appraisers will use homes in the surrounding area to help determine a valuation as well, so if your home doesn’t conform to the neighborhood standards, the valuation will require more work and will likely cost more.
A licensed appraiser is the only individual that can carry out a property appraisal. You should always check to ensure an appraiser you’re considering has the proper licensing from your state. Additionally, since an appraisal is meant to be an unbiased opinion of a property’s value, you should confirm that the appraiser doesn’t have ties to any other party in the sale of the property.
Anyone can hire a property appraiser to confirm the inherent value of a property, but the buyer or buyer’s lender will usually choose the appraiser and pay the individual for their opinion. It’s also not uncommon for the seller’s side in a real estate transaction to hire an appraiser in order to justify an asking price or negotiate a higher selling price.
