"Excellent. Larry Whited was able to interact on our behalf with the sellers, financial people, etc, and perform virtual walkthroughs for us, that served us to appraise the property. He visited multiple houses for us and with his years of experience was able to give us an accurate appraisal of the relative value of each, that was extremely important in our ability to make a final selection. It should be noted, that webMLS was paid a fee, but that fee was paid by the sellers, not us."

"I have worked with Julie for many years and for multiple transactions. 
She is extremely organized, makes sure people have pertinent information, gives great advice and knows her business.  She is very professional but  down to earth.  She goes the extra mile to help in all sorts of ways and stays abreast of technology and information that will help her give great service to her  clients.  The real estate business is one where anything can happen.   Julie's breadth of knowledge, ability to think ahead and willingness to do whatever it takes to make a transaction work makes her an excellent choice for anyone in the Cincinnati area.

"We moved to a new house about a month ago, after living in the same place for 7 years. We had a lot of heavy furniture and other items. The movers Kelvin, Ty, and Jaylen did a great job arriving on time, moving everything carefully, and thoughtfully moving around the space to avoid damage. They were kind to our animals and young son, who was very excited and wanted to "help". Thank you Kelvin, Ty, and Jay for your professionalism and excellent service."

FAQs for antique and jewelry appraisal projects in Cincinnati, OH

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.
