Questions Before You Order
- What can I expect during the appraisal inspection?
- Inspections are scheduled with a 2-hour arrival window, and an exact arrival time is available upon request. The on-site visit typically takes 15–45 minutes.
- How much does an appraisal cost?
- Pricing varies depending on several factors, including property location, complexity, intended use (residential or commercial), site size, turnaround time, and the overall scope of work. Because each assignment is unique, the most accurate way to receive a quote is to submit the property address and a brief description of your needs using our contact form.
- What can I do if I disagree with an appraisal?
- If you’ve received an appraisal and disagree with the final opinion of value, you still have options. Our professional consulting services can help you evaluate the report to determine whether a full appraisal review is appropriate. We can clarify appraisal terminology, identify potential gaps, and assist you in preparing an unbiased Reconsideration of Value request with the proper structure and language for your lender.
- Can I order an appraisal to have my PMI removed?
- PMI can typically be removed once your loan-to-value ratio reaches 80% and you’ve owned the home for at least five years. Some lenders may allow removal at a 75% loan-to-value ratio after two years. Because requirements vary, it’s essential to confirm your lender’s specific policy. Whether they will accept a privately ordered appraisal, many rely solely on their own panel of appraisers for internal loan processes.
