Unfortunately, if you are refinancing or purchasing a home by obtaining a mortgage loan through a lender, your home appraisal fee will probably be $350-$500 depending on lender internal requirements as well as their choice of an Appraisal Management Company (AMC); since 21 July 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act created significant financial regulation over mortgage lenders and has also been more detrimental to the consumer in regards to more documentation and higher costs. The mortgage lending red tape has harmed good real estate appraisers trying to adhere to all of the numerous and onerous new regulations for appraisal opinion reporting. The government’s creation of more and more red tape for mortgage lenders has not been helpful but a direct detriment to consumers, home appraisers and the real estate industry as a whole.

“Citronelle was for thousands of year’s part of the territory of indigenous peoples. By the time of European contact, members of the historical tribes of the Choctaw and Creek hunted the area. Citronelle was recorded as An Indian Settlement in 1702. …”

“In 1777, William Bartram, an American botanist, took a canoe trip of thirty miles up the river from Mobile to find a plant which his Indian allies assured him would cure him of malaria. He found the plant and named it “Citronella”. Citronella then grew in profusion on a plateau thirty miles from Mobile, to which the Mobile and Ohio Railway built the first railroad in south Alabama in 1851 and where the railroad company appropriately
named a station Citronelle. Citronelle was found to possess healing herbs and mineral springs. The area was first settled in 1811 and established as a jurisdiction in 1892. …”
