Appraisal

The process of determining the value of a piece of real estate. An appraiser determines the value of your property in a report called an appraisal. The appraised value is used by banks to determine loan amounts.

What is an appraisal?

An appraisal is an estimation of the value of a property, typically conducted by a licensed or certified appraiser. The appraiser uses various methods and data to determine the property value, such as recent sales of comparable properties in the area, the condition of the property, and the local real estate market. The appraiser will also consider any unique property features that may affect its value, such as a view or a pool.

Why are appraisals important?

An appraisal is a crucial step in the buying and selling property process, as it can help determine a fair price for the property. For a seller, an appraisal can help ensure that they are getting a fair price for their property. For a buyer, an appraisal can help ensure that they are not overpaying for the property.

In addition, appraisals are often required by lenders when a property is being used as collateral for a mortgage. The lender wants to ensure that the property is worth at least as much as the amount of the loan, so they will require an appraisal to be conducted before approving the loan.

How are appraisals conducted?

Appraisals are performed by licensed or certified appraisers who have expertise in the local real estate market. The appraiser will visit the property and conduct a thorough inspection, taking note of any features that may affect its value.

Appraiser will then use various methods and data to determine the property value. One popular method is the sales comparison approach, where the appraiser compares the property to recent sales of comparable properties in the area. The appraiser may also use the income approach, which is often used for commercial properties, or the cost approach, which estimates the property value based on the cost of replacing it.

Once the appraiser has determined the property value, they will provide a written report to the buyer, seller, and any lenders involved in the transaction.

There are several different types of property appraisals, including:

Market value appraisals: These appraisals are used to determine the fair market value of a property, which is the price that a willing buyer and seller would agree upon in an arm's length transaction.
Appraisals for mortgage lending: When a borrower applies for a mortgage, the lender will typically require an appraisal to ensure that the property is worth the amount being borrowed.
Appraisals for tax purposes: Local governments may use appraisals to determine the value of a property for tax assessment purposes.
Appraisals for insurance purposes: Insurance companies may require an appraisal to determine the value of a property for insurance coverage purposes.
Appraisals for estate planning: Appraisals may be used to determine the value of a property for estate planning or probate purposes.

An appraisal is an estimation of the value of a property, typically conducted by a licensed or certified appraiser.

Appraisals are an important step in the process of buying or selling a property, as they can help determine a fair price for the property and ensure that both the buyer and seller are getting a good deal. An appraisal is often required by lenders when a property is being used as collateral for a mortgage.

Resales of Shares will be conducted by Dalmore, as a broker-dealer member of the Secondary Trading Platform; provided, however, any such resale of Shares will be subject to federal and state securities laws and the restrictions in the Series’ Operating Agreement, and there can be no assurance that an active market for any Shares will develop on the Secondary Trading Platform, that the Secondary Trading Platform will be available to allow resales of Shares to residents of all states, or that the Secondary Trading Platform will be available at all. For these reasons, investors must be prepared to hold their Shares indefinitely.
