FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Throughout the years in the real estate appraisal business, there is little we have not come across. Below are a few of the most frequently asked questions we receive.
What is an appraisal?
A home appraisal is an unbiased opinion on the fair market value of a parcel of real estate, performed by a trained and licensed individual. A home appraisal may be required for various real estate transactions when the value of the home is in question. Having a trusted and unbiased opinion of value provided to you by a licensed appraiser is the best resource when it comes to the value of your home. The steps taken to a proper and accurate real estate appraisal include:
- Identification of the Problem
- Scope of Work Determination
- Data Collection and Property Description
- Data Analysis
- Site Value Opinion
- Application of the Approaches to Value (Cost, Income, and Sales Comparison)
- Reconciliation of Value Indications and Final Opinion of Value
- Report of Defined Value
What is the definition of Market Value?
Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
- Buyer and seller are typically motivated.
- Both parties are well informed or well advised and acting in what they consider their own best interests.
- A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market.
- Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto.
- The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.
Market Value Vs Market Price?
Market value is best described as an opinion of value based on reliable value indicators. Market value reflects the most probable price a property could bring in an open market with no outside influences present.
It is important to note that real estate markets are an imperfect world. Therefore, market price and market value are not always one in the same.
