An appraisal is a valuation of the value of your property by a licensed appraiser. You will receive an appraisal report (taxatierapport). This is important when you want to buy, sell or insure a house. The name of an appraiser is taxateur.
The cost of a taxatierapport are not regulated and will diver with the taxateur (appraiser). So I can be wise to shop around. Normally the prices are between 500 and 1000 euro. Depending the hours it will take the taxateur. On our page Real Estate Appraisels you can find local experts.
Because an appraisal is a snapshot of the current situation, your mortgage provider requires a report not older then 6 months.
