Appraisal request
What the market is asking.
From current Colonial Realty listings and the sales we have recorded. A figure appears once at least three listings, or five sales, stand behind it.

Asking prices are what sellers hope to achieve. Sold figures are medians of recorded Colonial Realty sales over the last two years, never a single sale. Neither is a valuation. Monthly trend lines fill in as each month is recorded.
Quick estimate
A rough range, in seconds.
Based on recent sales per square foot where we have enough of them, otherwise on what comparable listings are asking. For a figure you can take to a bank, request an appraisal.
A few ways to increase your property’s value.
Practical steps you can take before an appraisal, a sale or a refinance.
Storm readiness
Impact windows or fitted shutters, hurricane straps and a sound roof are among the first things buyers, insurers and lenders ask about.
Approvals in order
Approved building plans and a certificate of occupancy for every structure, including additions, avoid surprises at appraisal and closing.
Clear title and survey
Keep the conveyance and a current survey or plot plan to hand. Boundaries that match the survey support the land value.
Real Property Tax paid
Settle any outstanding Real Property Tax and keep the receipts. Arrears hold up sales and refinancing.
Water and power
A cistern or reliable well, a working septic system and a standby generator matter in the islands, and most of all on the Family Islands.
Salt-air upkeep
Fresh paint, rust-free fittings and serviced AC units show care. Corrosion and mould are quick to lower a first impression.
Termite protection
A recent treatment certificate and sound timber in the roof and frames remove an easy reason to discount.
Usable outdoor space
Good drainage, tidy landscaping and covered outdoor areas add appeal and help the property read as well kept.

常见解答
How long does an appraisal take?
Typically about three days from the inspection, depending on the size and type of property. Larger jobs such as subdivisions or portfolios take longer, and we confirm the timing with you first.
What does it cost?
Fees depend on the property and the purpose. The appraiser confirms the fee with you before any work begins.
Will my bank accept your report?
Tell us which lender you are using and we will prepare the report to their requirements.
What should I have ready?
The conveyance or title, a survey or plot plan, approved building plans if any, and access to every building. The appraiser will confirm anything else needed.
Can I give the quick estimate to my bank?
No. The quick estimate is based on estimated market data from the asking prices of comparable listings in the same area or island. It is a rough guide, not a valuation, and banks, insurers and courts need a full appraisal. Contact our appraisers for one.
