Guest guest Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 we just had our house appraised yesterday, we are getting a home equity loan to put in some laminate flooring and tile..............................i did wrestle with not doing this holding off and maybe using it for plastic surgery later on, but i have been complaning about our carpet being a mess for five years now.......................and i really want new floors, the appraiser was at our house for a total of like 15 minutes if that, and i got to thinking, hmmm maybe this is something i could do, i am nosey and love looking at peoples houses...................so thanks for sharing.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 That is so funny, Colleen, 'cause I too am nosy...lol I love to see how people have decorated their homes, if they're messy, etc. Also, we paid our one appraiser $375.00 for an appraisal when we re-financed, and then $450.00 to another when we pulled out money to put hardwood floors downstairs. I think that being an appraiser can be quite lucrative, especially considering that the appraisers were not at the house more than 20 minutes!! (But remember, the work and time involved in doing a home appraisal is not just the time spent at your house. There is much more work that needs to be done after they have come out to your home.)
