"I wholeheartedly recommend Kevin for any/all property appraisal needs. I requested a quote via Angie's List and he contacted me the very same day. He was able to schedule my appointment quickly and performed his services exactly as he described. He was thorough in appraising our property, and the report he sent was detailed and showcased how knowledgeable Kevin is. I found the pricing to be reasonable and I would definitely use his services in the future."

"I needed an appraisal of my property to assess value for my divorce proceedings. I called a few appraisers and decided to go with Craig Gehm Appraisals, as they were professional, able to work within my time frame and kindly answered all of my questions. On the day of my appointment, Craig was punctual and did a thorough walk through of my property. I didnâ t expect to receive my report for at least a week, however Craig sent the full report to me within 24 hours! The appraisal was just what I needed to help me through the process of equitable distribution in my divorce. I would highly recommend Craig Gehm Appraisals for any of your appraisal needs."

"My mother was a hoarder. My siblings and I had spent nine months removing trash and family items from the house. I still had rooms filled with kitchen ware, linens, Christmas decorations and ornaments, books, note cards, stationery, postcards, albums, knickknacks, old clothing, toys, puzzles, etc. There was some furniture, but nothing of high quality. There were items in the basement that hadn't seen the light of day for 40 years. Marc and his crew sorted and priced what was left in the house, conducted an estate sale over a weekend, and disposed of whatever didn't sell. I paid for advertising(the $303.50). 35% of total sales went to him, and I was charged for clean-up and for disposal of items that could not be handled by weekly trash services(for instance an upright piano and an ancient freezer). The proceeds of the sale covered the latter costs. I feel Marc explained to me the whole process, was fair with his prices, and he managed to do in a week what would have taken me many more months to do. Plus, I would have had to pay someone to haul away the freezer and piano and other heavy items. There was one time when he forgot he had a meeting with me(that explains the lower grade on punctuality),but he was easy to reach by phone at all times. I can't comment on his accuracy in appraising items, because that was not my focus. I just wanted everything out of the house, and he accomplished that goal for me."

"Great communication, extremely thorough and would highly recommend!!!!"
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.
