"Wayne Rogers was pleasant to work with. He was very responsive, professional and knowledgeable. We were able to get (3) Maryland homes reviewed for appraisal in one day. And we received those appraisals in 5 days. The appraisal cost per home was excellent. I would most assuredly use F.A.B. Appraisals again, and would fully recommend to family and friends."

"Marc Dosik and his team at Help U Sell handled three Real Estate transactions for me this year. Selling two homes and purchasing another one. I was amazed how smooth Marc made each transaction. He was always available to answer all my questions, each time making me feel like I was his only client! I have worked with other agents and Marc is by far the most professional Agent I have worked with. He made what could have been a stressful situation stress free! I would highly recommend Marc Dosik for all your real estate needs!"

"David was wonderful! I needed an appraisal for estate tax purposes and he obliged to get one to me within 2 weeks although I really did not need it until end of this year. The pricing was very fair and he was thoughtful enough to send me a copy of his state license as well as his appraisers insurance policy before I needed to ask. That is quality customer service. Would I recommend using David? YES! Would I use his service again in the future? YES!"

FAQs for antique and jewelry appraisal projects in Capitol Heights, MD

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.
