But if your property has a high-end kitchen and the other one doesn't, an appraiser might add $10k back and value yours at $110k.You might try to get your hands on a few appraisals to learn how appraisers value a property and add/subtract value based on features, square footage, and fixtures/finish.While I'm sure this varies wildly, I've found that some realtors rely too heavily on automated comps or CMAs when valuing properties, and these can be off by a wide margin.
