"Joe and Patrick were extremely responsive and wonderful to work with. Joe gave me an appraisal based on very detailed, multiple factors, fully explained, which obviously took a great deal of effort to acquire during these difficult times. The Curreri Group was exceptionally professional in all respects, and I will definitely use them as my go to for all future appraisal needs."

"I called because I was looking to refinance my mortgage. Simply,
instead of trying to sell me something I didn't need, Mark (the gentleman I
spoke with) told me this was not the right time for me to refinance. What he
told me made sense for my situation, and I appreciated the honest advice. I
will definitely look this company up again when it is time for me to refinance.

"Believe it or not it was hard to get someone to go up to the Vernon area for an appraisal and so he was willing to do that but then also he showed up on time. He took the pictures. He gave comprehensive reports. I think the report could had been a little bit quicker the turnaround time but I will still fine. Price is competitive."

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.
