The Appraising Group Newark

Appraisers may look in closets to understand the layout, storage and visible condition. Confirm which areas need to be accessible for the assignment.

Appraisers are not interested in cleanliness or organization; their focus is on:

Measuring square footage for accurate valuation

Verifying room layout (sometimes a door that appears to be a closet could lead to another room)

Checking for visible signs of damage (such as water stains or structural issues) if easily observable.

Noting storage space, as the number and size of closets can be a desirable feature for buyers.

Clutter can make the inspection harder if it blocks access or obscures the space. Clear requested access and raise any privacy concern before the visit.
