Q: What is a new construction appraisal?

A: A new construction appraisal determines the market value of a home that is newly built or still under construction. It factors in plans, materials, upgrades, quality, location, and nearby new-build comps — using both the sales comparison and cost approaches.

Q: When should I get a new construction appraisal?

A: It depends on your needs. You might need it:

  • Before breaking ground (based on plans/specs)

  • Mid-construction (for draw inspections or investment tracking)

  • After completion (for listing, tax appeal, or equity purposes)

Q: Can you appraise a home that isn’t finished yet?

A: Yes. We provide both “as-is” valuations and “subject to completion” appraisals. This is ideal for investors, builders, and private homeowners managing new builds.

Q: Is this different from a regular home appraisal?

A: Yes — new construction appraisals often rely more on cost estimates and builder-grade comps, especially when few sales exist. They also factor in features not yet visible, such as custom finishes or energy-efficient upgrades.

Q: Why not just use a CMA from a real estate agent?

A: A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is not a regulated valuation. An appraisal provides a licensed, third-party opinion of value that’s defensible for investment, tax, legal, or resale purposes.

Q: Do you appraise custom homes or high-end builds?

A: Absolutely. We handle custom homes, luxury infill development, and first-time builder projects across the greater Atlanta area. Every report is tailored to your plans and specs.
