Video: Market Value & Appraisals

March 29, 2009

Jonathan Miller talks about how real estate appraisers are impacting the flow of housing sales. He covers these main points:

  • Sellers are generally a year behind the market
  • The ranks of good appraisers were decimated by the mortgage boom
  • Appraisers have long been the “punching bag” of blown deals
  • Lack of data is a huge issue

Connie De Groot, who was the Beverly Hills real estate agent who is a regular on Fox Business News recommended that buyers get an appraisal when pricing their property for sale – or as Cavuto suggested, a “Swiss Appraiser.”
