Residential Property AppraisalResidential Property Appraisals Appraisals of houses are often needed for judicial proceedings. This includes estate planning, filing estate tax returns, divorce and civil disputes regarding construction defects and fraud. Carefully define the purpose of the appraisal and the scope of work with your appraiser prior to entering into an engagement. The scope of work needs to be tailored to the purpose of the house appraisal.
Home appraisals are time sensitive and critical to financing your home. Numerous requirements must be fulfilled to close the purchase or refinancing of a house. While most house appraisals are to document the value when purchasing or refinancing your house, there are many other reasons appraisals of homes are required. These include estate planning, intra family sales, estate taxes, divorce and expert witness testimony regarding litigation. Appraisals of homes for expert witness testimony require a higher standard of care than routine appraisals. All data should be verified and the circumstances of each sale should be reviewed. The final report should be checked and double checked to avoid any math or typographical errors. We understand timely, accurate, and well documented appraisals are essential in each situation. The accuracy of the appraisal depends on the quality and quantity of available data and the skill and judgment of the appraiser.
