Properties

Buying a piece of Real Estate weather for personal use or investment properties is probably one of the single largest investment decisions a person can make in a lifetime.

 

The valuation process is extremely significant, since the purchase of Real Estate may be one of the largest financial transactions a person may ever make.

 

 

An appraiser is State Licensed, State Certified, or State Certified General who can be called upon to provide an educated opinion of current value at the time of appraisal for properties and land being sold or purchased.

 

An Appraisal can also be used for future value of a property being build, or damaged due to storms, vandalism, deterioration, and functional obsolescence.

 

An Appraisal can also be used for values for the purpose of Lending decisions, Property Insurance, Disposition of an Estate, Legal Disputes, Damage claims, Tax Assessment, and value of property being Expropriated by the Government.

 

 

Some Appraisals are also ordered by the homeowners in determining the current value of their property, and to determine what changes they can make to render their property a higher value in the future.

 

 

Important areas that bring values to a home:

Focus on Kitchens, Bathrooms, and Flooring. A fresh coat of paint goes a long way.

 

When making an improvement, try to conform to the desires of the immediate market area. If you under improve it can hurt your value. If you over improve it can hurt your value. Find out what will give you the best return on your investment.

Do you have an older home with a squeaky floorboard's that drive you crazy each time someone passes by? If so, you’ll be happy to know that is easy to fix.

 

All you need is some baby powder and a broom. Sprinkle some powder over the offending area and work it into the cracks with the broom. In moments the floor will be squeak-free again.
