I am the owner of a Professional Organizing business. My business provides a menu of services from residential organizing, home staging, home redesign, relocation assistance and senior citizen transition assistance. Although most of my career was as an Executive/Personal Assistant my passion has always been interior design and home improvement. For years I worked as the Assistant to the Chief Risk Officer at JPMorgan Chase. One portion of the Risk Dept. was fraud. Identity theft, credit card fraud and mail fraud. It forced me to look at the world in a different way. It made me aware of the simple ways that criminals take advantage of people and their personal information. Unfortunately senior citizens become a prime target for bad people. This became my primary focus of my business. When I work with families that are moving mom or dad into assisted living or retirement communities my priority is to protect their personal information. Seniors often become overwhelmed with mail and paper work in their homes and they don’t want to throw anything away. I help in organizing what is critical and what can be shredded. I will organize key documents and important information so there is one place to find these items and a limited amount of people who can access them.Anyone can own a business offering services. I like to think that I can make a difference in someone’s life by implementing small changes and treating clients with dignity. Please feel free to check out my website www.organizedbytlb.com and let me know if I can help you or a loved one declutter, stage a home or redesign!

The appraisal timeline begins with scheduling, which may take three to five days, depending on local appraiser availability. The on-site evaluation requires one to three hours based on property size and complexity. Following the inspection, appraisers need two to five days for research, analysis, and report preparation. The entire process takes seven to 10 days, though complex properties or government-backed loans may extend this timeframe.
The value of home appraisals extends beyond their immediate expense. They protect buyers from overpaying and help lenders ensure appropriate loan amounts. By providing independent market value verification, home appraisals help prevent potential financial missteps in major property transactions. This protection justifies the upfront cost for most real estate scenarios.
Home appraisers evaluate numerous property elements, including square footage, floor plan functionality, overall condition, and specific features. They document improvements, necessary repairs, and distinctive amenities. These observations are compared against similar properties recently sold in the neighborhood. Appraisers also consider location factors, current market conditions, and relevant zoning or property restrictions.
Yes, home appraisal fees are collected before the final closing. Since lenders require completed home appraisal reports before finalizing loan approvals, this cost occurs earlier in the transaction process. While buyers usually cover this expense, payment methods vary—some pay directly to the appraiser while others include it in closing costs.
Some property owners successfully use recent appraisals when challenging tax assessments. However, tax-assessed values often differ from market valuations. The appeal process involves submitting your appraisal as evidence that the tax authority's valuation exceeds actual market value. Success rates vary by jurisdiction, and the process may require patience and persistence.
From the buyer's perspective, appraisals verify they aren't overpaying for a property. Lenders won't approve financing that exceeds appraised value, potentially requiring buyers to renegotiate or contribute additional cash. Appraisal findings can also inform future improvement planning and investment decisions.
For sellers, preparation makes a difference. Clean, well-maintained properties present better during appraisal evaluations. Some sellers obtain pre-listing appraisals to establish appropriate asking prices, though most rely on the buyer's lender-ordered appraisal during the transaction process.
