Appraisers typically don’t spend a lot of time in the home while they’re inspecting it. In fact, most interior inspection typically takes 30 minutes. It’s a good idea to include a fact sheet about the home with the address, the year the home was built, the square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the size of the lot. Also include a listing of recent sales in the area, especially if you know of any for-sale-by-owner homes that have sold or homes that sold for less than they should have for any reason. For example, a home may have been sold to a relative, or the owners may have sold quickly to take a job out of town. Yes, the appraiser has access to recent home sales, but there’s always a chance he or she may miss something. Check out below to see what sold in Abbey Knoll in May 2025:
