What it tells you

What does a purchase appraisal tell you?

What the home would likely sell for on the open market now. Buyers use it to avoid overpaying; sellers use it to set or defend a price. Tyler is paid for the appraisal, not the sale, so the value has no stake in whether the deal closes.

Purchase appraisal questions

Common questions

Is a purchase appraisal the same as a home inspection?

No. An appraisal estimates market value; a home inspection checks the condition of the house and its systems. Many buyers get both.

Can I order an appraisal without a lender?

Yes. Buyers and sellers can order a private appraisal from Tyler directly. If a loan is involved, the lender will still order its own.

How long will it take?

Tyler's 2025 reports averaged 5.9 days, and every one arrived on or before the promised date.
