Hybrid appraisals


Fair Market Appraisals

Hybrid appraisals are a type of real estate appraisal that combines traditional appraisals with technology and data analysis to provide a more comprehensive and efficient appraisal process.

In a hybrid appraisal, a licensed appraiser will typically conduct an exterior inspection of the property, taking photos and notes on the condition and features of the home, while a non-appraiser inspector may conduct an interior inspection. 


The appraiser will then use data from various sources, including public records, online data sources, and market data, to help determine the value of the property. This information is combined with the information gathered during the inspection to create a comprehensive appraisal report.


Hybrid appraisals can be more efficient and cost-effective than traditional appraisals, as they typically require less time and resources to complete. They can also be used in situations where a full interior inspection is not possible or practical, such as during a pandemic or for properties located in remote areas.


However, some critics of hybrid appraisals argue that they may not be as accurate as traditional appraisals, as they rely on data and technology rather than the appraiser's expertise and judgment. Additionally, the use of non-appraiser inspectors to conduct interior inspections has raised concerns about their qualifications and the accuracy of their assessments.


Overall, hybrid appraisals are a relatively new approach to real estate appraisal that offer benefits and drawbacks, and their use may vary depending on the specific needs and circumstances of the property in question.
