For a Birmingham house appraisal, confirm the current charge for the property and assignment. If the report is for a VA loan, ask the lender handling it which fee schedule and property category apply.
Property categories
- Single-family home
- Condominium
- Manufactured home
- Two- to four-unit residential property
What to ask about the fee
Confirm what the quote includes:
- Property inspection or other information gathering, and comparable-sales research.
- The report format and intended recipients.
- Expected appointment and delivery dates, plus any separately requested follow-up work.
Keep valuation charges separate from other services such as a home inspection, pest inspection or loan processing. Ask each provider what its fee includes.
Practical tips for homeowners and buyers
- Ask the lender which appraisal process and report requirements apply to your property.
- Share the closing or other deadline early. Confirm actual timing and leave room for any follow-up information requests.
