How much is a property appraisal, and where can I find an appraiser?

Asked by mrrich724 (8547points) February 28th, 2012

I am in the process of buying a home for the first time. My realtor stated I need an appraisal done for the bank, as part of the process to acquire my home loan. She stated it would be “around $475.00”

My questions are two fold:

1) Roughly, how much does an appraisal cost/ does that seem like a typical rate?

2) Where in Broward County, FL (or any other resource), can I use to find a reputable appraiser?

Thanks all!
