Review your report
Check the property details and ask about anything you need explained.
Agree on the fee, visit and report date
Explain whether you need an estate valuation, divorce appraisal, tax appeal, pre-listing appraisal, refinance, PMI removal or renovation evaluation. Share any lender or legal reporting requirements, including FHA or conventional guidelines where relevant, before booking.
A West Chester mailing address can mean a home in the borough or a nearby township. Give us the complete address so we can confirm coverage for your property.
Ask about the fee, accepted payment methods and when payment is due. Choose an available appointment with daylight for the interior and exterior inspection. Confirm the access contact, instructions and email for the report and invoice. Tell us about any closing, rate-lock or court deadline before agreeing to the schedule.
How much time should you allow?
Our September 15, 2026 planning estimates were 30 minutes to a couple of hours on site for a typical single-family home, with the written report often delivered within a few business days afterward. Size, complexity and condition affect the time needed. These are estimates, not a promised inspection length or turnaround; confirm both dates for your assignment.
The visit is only part of the work. Afterward, we research comparable sales, analyze market trends and prepare the report. Reports are usually delivered as a PDF; confirm the delivery format when booking. Ask us about adjustments or property features if you have questions after reading it.
Gather the records you already have
Have the approximate square footage, year built, bedroom and bathroom counts ready. Mention finished basements or attics, garages, outbuildings and additions. Note major roof, heating and cooling, kitchen or bathroom updates, with dates and approximate costs.
Keep recent sale or listing details, prior appraisals, surveys, permits, improvement receipts and HOA information nearby. Ask how to prepare a recently finished basement or detached structure for the visit.
Make access easy, inside and out
Reconfirm the date, time and person providing access. Clear pathways to rooms, storage and utility areas, basements, attics, garages and outbuildings. Secure pets and arrange parking.
Check that utilities are on, replace burned-out bulbs and check heating and cooling systems. Address minor safety issues where possible, such as loose handrails or exposed wiring. An accessible, organized home helps the inspection proceed; cosmetic issues alone do not dictate value.
