How long does a residential appraisal take?

Most standard reports are delivered within a few business days after inspection. Plan additional time for narrative or legal reports.

Do I need a full appraisal or a desktop appraisal?

Confirm the acceptable report type with the lender, lawyer, accountant, or court that will rely on the report.

Can an appraisal help before selling?

An independent pre-listing appraisal can support pricing decisions and negotiations — particularly for private sales, unusual properties, or where a CMA is insufficient.

Who pays for a mortgage appraisal?

It varies by lender and product. Some lenders cover the cost; some pass it to the borrower. Confirm with your broker or lender before ordering.

Can I choose my own appraiser?

For non-lender purposes — estate, divorce, tax, private sale — yes. For lender-ordered work, the lender typically selects from a panel.

What happens if the appraisal is lower than expected?

Ask the lender about a reconsideration of value. In some cases a second qualified opinion is appropriate.
