An appraisal is an important step in buying a home because it helps determine the property’s fair market value.

Here’s how it typically works:
📊 A licensed appraiser evaluates the home’s condition, size, features, and recent comparable sales in the area
🏠 They visit the property to assess both the interior and exterior
📄 A report is created with an estimated value

The appraisal helps confirm the home is worth the price being offered. If it comes in low, it could affect negotiations and may require adjustments to the offer.

Understanding the process helps buyers feel confident and prepared. Reach out to learn what factors can impact an appraisal and how to navigate them.

Just one more week until the Highlands Street Fair is back next Saturday, June 20th! 🎉☀️

Join us along 32nd Avenue from Irving to Perry Street for a full day of local vendors, food trucks, a car show, live entertainment, and family fun from 10 AM–7 PM. It's one of our favorite neighborhood traditions and a great way to kick off summer in the Highlands.
