Different Types of Real Estate Appraisal Methods

It is the job of a real estate appraiser to appraise the value of your home. Every feature and aspect of your home plays a part in its value. However, the value is different than the price. A real estate appraiser will find out what the market value of your home is. The market value isn't a set price, but it typically gives you a good range of what price your home can sell for.
So how exactly does a real estate appraiser understand and compute the value of your home? There are many different methods for home valuation. Here are the three most common methods to appraise your home’s value.
  • The sales comparison approach: This is when the appraiser will compare your property’s characteristics with those of comparable properties that have recently sold and set the value accordingly. So this is essentially a market set value.
  • The cost approach: When the buyer will not pay more for your property than it would cost to build an equivalent is called the cost approach. The buyer sets the value for this approach. This means that if a buyer were to build a similar or comparable building from scratch, whatever that cost equates to, is all the buyer will pay for the property.
  • The income approach: The fundamental math behind this approach is similar to the methods used for financial valuation, securities analysis or bond pricing. This is another market set value.
These are the three main methods of real estate appraisal, and depending on the type of real estate involved will determine which method is best for your home.

Do People Still Use Trash Compactors?

Image
Prior to the Industrial Revolution and into the 19th century there was very little trash in America. People found a way to reuse almost every scrap of waste. That changed when manufacturers began packaging goods to attract consumers. It wasn't long before “taking out the trash” became a chore no one was fond of doing. The invention of the trash compactor was a combination of several machines. One may say M.S. Wells started the trend in 1941 when he invented a machine used to crush oil cans. Two employees of the manufacturer Compackager designed machines more suitable for home and office use. Commercial trash compactors became an instant hit after their introduction. They are still frequently used by restaurants, hotels, medical facilities and other businesses that produce large amounts of waste. As with many appliances, the first compactors introduced for home use were considered a novelty. They were expensive and mostly available to the rich. They were bulky, noisy and s...
