"The process was easy, and pricing options were provided up fromt. They gave clear instructions about what they needed for the appraisal. They provided an appraisal quickly, with a nice turn around time. I would call this company again next I need an appraisal."

"I was looking for an appraisal on the current house I was renting in order to see if it would be worth buying. The appraiser Dan was prompt in keeping our appointment, and he was very professional and extremely thorough in his appraisal of the property. One business day later, I received a report showing all of the information about the property and an assessment of what it was worth and the repairs that were needed. Dan went above and beyond my expectations and delivered excellent customer service. I received exactly what I needed on this appraisal and am very happy with the results of his assessment. I highly recommend NY Appraisers!"

Anthony, I have enjoyed working with you, I totally love your work ethic. Any time I had questions, you were exceptionally timely in getting back to me, there was never a doubt in my mind who our agent was working for and you are a true professional. It was a pleasure working with you. I believe my siblings were equally impressed. We were all set to lower the sale price when the appraisal came in lower than what the buyers were hoping for. Then along comes Anthony; problem already handled, and resolved in family?s favor. You were a big hit with that one. Thank you for everything!

"It went superbly - except of course for the money that I had to pay out of pocket - based on what Choice covered and didn't. BUT - that is understandable and everything was conducted in accordance with the Choice contract I had executed for the house. I placed the service call online via the Choice web site on Tuesday morning, the call was sent to the contractor within 2 hours and point of contact provided for me to establish contact, I called the vendor and had a service call scheduled for Thursday afternoon, the contractor came in the time period the company provided, made repairs on site without leaving, appraised me of the work being performed as it was being done, gave a detailed breakdown of charges, coordinated with Choice on the cost share, remained on site until they verified the unit was working, and in general were very professional. I would recommend the service company to anyone."

FAQs for antique and jewelry appraisal projects in Amsterdam, NY

You can estimate a bathroom addition’s value between 10% to 20% of a home’s value. But this also accounts for extra square footage since homes with more bathrooms tend to have more space. When considering adding one, you should know that a bathroom generally adds only $5,000 to an appraisal price initially, with adjustments made for other factors like local home values.

Garages increase a property’s value by about 80% of the build price. The national average cost to build a garage is $23,900.

However, on an appraisal, a garage contributes to the whole rather than as a part. For example, if you have a garage, your appraiser then tries to compare it to nearby homes with garages, which often have a higher value.

A bedroom can add anywhere from $10,000 to $25,000 or more to an appraisal. It depends heavily on the size of the bedroom, the overall home’s value, the location, and what amenities it might include (like a walk-in closet).

A drive-by appraisal usually costs $100 to $150. For a drive-by appraisal, the appraiser only visually assesses the home's exterior, in addition to reviewing the real estate records on the home and comparing it to nearby homes.

An FHA appraisal costs between $400 and $700. Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans are usually less strict, so the appraisals are often more affordable. VA appraisal fees range from $425 to $900 for a single-family home. Compared to FHA loans, VA loans can be more involved.

A home appraiser will look at the real estate paperwork related to the home, but they will also do an exterior and interior assessment. Reviews include the square footage of the home and/or acreage of the lot, the age and condition of the home, construction materials used, the general state of the economy and local market, and the design and style of the home, along with any special features it may have. While an appraiser won’t be as thorough as a home inspector, they will likely notice very obvious problems and defects.
