Appraisal Questions
Before your property appraisal, ask your appraiser how many years’ experience he or she has. Ensure he or she is licensed and certified, and ask how much experience he or she has working in your neighborhood. The more familiarity he or she has in your area, the better.
Schedule a phone or in-person interview with your potential appraiser. Look at some of the appraiser’s previous documentation, and ask, “How did you choose what to put into this?” Ask all your pressing relevant questions in advance. This will ensure you trust an appraisers’ opinion before you hire him or her.
