  • ?? What Every Home Buyer Should Know: Tips from Your Local Appraisal Experts

    Welcome to Lemmon Appraisals! Buying a home is a thrilling milestone—but beneath the excitement, there are some serious steps to take to protect your investment. As an appraisal office committed to clarity, fairness, and peace of mind, we’re here to help you understand what matters most in the home buying process.

    ?? 1. Why Appraisals Matter

    An appraisal isn’t just a formality—it’s a critical step in determining the true market value of a home. Lenders want to know if the home you’re buying is worth the amount you’re borrowing. But for buyers, it’s also a safeguard:

    • Avoid overpaying

    • Confirm property condition and comparables

    • Spot red flags that might affect value

    ?? 2. What Affects Home Value?

    Our appraisers look beyond square footage and staging. Key factors include:

    • Location: Is it in a growing neighborhood? Near schools, parks, or commercial zones?

    • Condition: Structural integrity, age of roof and HVAC, visible damage.

    • Recent sales: What did similar homes in the area sell for?

    • Upgrades: Renovations are great—but not all improvements add equal value.
