Why does an appraiser even take photos of homes?
When appraising a residential property, one of the main ways appraisers develop an opinion of value, is by comparing their subject to other homes similar to the subject property that have recently sold. In a typical refinance or purchase transaction, the form we use states that we have inspected the neighborhood, and each of the comparable sales from at least the street. The best way we can prove we have examined a comparable sale is by taking a photograph of the home. But more importantly, most banks require original photographs of comparable sales. That means we can’t just rip a photo off the MLS and call it a day.
