Miami Real Estate Appraiser

What factors influence the appraisal value of a property?

The appraisal value of a property is influenced by several factors, including the property's location, size, and condition. Other important considerations are the quality of construction, any upgrades or renovations, the layout and design, and the overall appeal of the property. External factors, such as the current real estate market conditions and recent sales prices of similar properties in the neighborhood, also play a significant role in determining the appraisal value.

How long does an appraisal take?

The appraisal process typically takes a few days to a week. The on-site inspection usually lasts about 1-2 hours, but the appraiser will also spend time researching and analyzing market data to compile the final report.

What factors do you consider during an appraisal?

During an appraisal, we consider factors such as the property's size, condition, location, and amenities. We also analyze recent sales of comparable properties in the area, current market trends, and any unique features that may impact the property's value.

From there, you can discuss your concerns with the appraiser or request a second appraisal from a different appraiser for comparison.
