"Marilyn was the best agent. She cares deeply about her clients success. She fights for her clients to ensure all their needs are met in the transaction and that all Concerns are met. We had many issues in our home buying process but marilyn was there with us every step of the way and helped us navigate the complex home buying process. If you are concerned about buying a home then you should choose marilyn to be your realtor she listens to your needs and develops plans to meet your needs. I would highly recommend marilyn Burke for your real estate agent. Marilyn will take care of you and negotiate for you to get the best price for your new home and ensure that any issues with the home are addressed. It was wonderful to have Marilyn as our realtor!"

"I left an inquiry for Steve on Angie's List and he contacted me within 24 hours. In fact, I was having phone problems and he patiently contacted me via phone and email until he was able to reach me. I explained to him what I needed done and that it had to be done by Saturday am (within 5 days). In order to save time, I sent him photos of the work (via email) and he gave me an estimate that day and scheduled the work for the next day.
He arrived at 7am and did the work at 2 different locations on the same day. He even sent me video via phone of the completed work since I could not be there. Steven also called me and emailed me to make sure I was happy before paying him. He is prompt, professional, honest and reliable. I would highly recommend using Steven Michael Demolition and Disposal and plan to do so again for future projects. If you hire him you will not be disappointed, you will get quality work fast and efficient."

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.
