"Great, Marc saved me thousands of dollars and provided similar service to a regular real estate broker. I recommend him to my friends. His photographic brochure was a big selling plus."

"We interviewed several realtors and Cindy stood out immediately from the rest with her energetic and inquisitive nature. She toured the clubhouse and outdoor areas with us to better understand the features and layout of the community and gain perspective as a selling tool. Cindy is patient and thorough in explaining the selling process and was always available to answer our questions. We valued her advise and professionalism. Cindy has great follow up. Our condo sold within a couple of weeks and the process was easy thanks to Cindy."

"The service worked out really well. There was an article in the Washington Post yesterday about home inspector and what they should be doing, he did exactly what was outlined in the article. It took about three hours, we discussed what the issues were in the house and if I wanted to rent whether or not it would be worth doing that. He was giving me estimates of things that needs to be fixed, repaired and what it would cost. When he finished, he emailed me a very detailed report with pictures and 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."

"Great!! Brennan came a few days earlier than expected. Work was done in a professional manner. Get the measurements correct, speed was NOT the primary interest. Identified stakes, and placed "flags" every 20 feet along the border. Price as extremely reasonable."

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.
