Why don’t you publish your fees?
We’re not shy about what we charge, but your property is unique! Consider the following example property types that we have appraised: 1) a multi-acre “gentleman’s farm” estate in the heart of Silicon Slopes, complete with a 5,000+ square foot designer home, indoor sports court, and a multi-stable horse barn ; 2) a mid-century rambler in Moab used heavily for nightly rentals; 3) a historic pioneer home in Manti, originally built by temple masons but with a 3,000 square foot modern addition; 4) a heavily updated craftsman-style duplex near Liberty Park in Salt Lake City.
Each would naturally have a different fee associated with an appraisal. So you can see why we need some information from you before we can give you a quote!
How soon can you get my appraisal done?
Typically, we can have a completed appraisal report delivered within 36-72 hours, depending on distance, complexity, etc. Also, the real estate world is seasonal and as such, we are naturally busier in the summer than the winter. If you need special accommodation, just ask! If you’re in Utah county, we can fit you in especially quickly.
I’m thinking of selling my house. Do I need an appraisal?
An appraisal report is highly detailed, and can give valuable insight that you cannot get from any other source. Think of it as an extremely solid foundation for an extremely large decision. If you’re serious about selling, it is always a good idea to have an unbiased third party give you an idea regarding the kind of value you might be able to fetch. While real estate agents can be an important part of the selling process, an appraisal can help you move forward with a higher degree of confidence.
