    Ordering an Appraisal - What information is needed?

    State and industry guidelines require appraisers to document certain information in the process of developing an appraisal report. These items are just a few that are required.

    • Purpose of the Appraisal Report - The appraiser will need to know the purpose of the appraisal in order to provide the best approach to develop an opinion of value. For example, an appraisal for a mortgage transaction would be approached differently than an appraisal report to determine a value for a quick sale.
    • Client and Intended User(s) - The appraiser will also need to know who the client and intended users are if other than the person requesting the appraisal. In some cases, such as legal cases, additional users may be identified by the client.

    If you have any questions about ordering an appraisal or the appraisal process feel free to call.

    Cape Coral Utilities Expansion Project Update

    Cape Coral City Council has voted to restart the utilities expansion project, bringing city water, irrigation water, and sewer service to all of south west Cape Coral and two neighborhoods in north Cape Coral. The first phase to be completed is a section of the city labeled SW 6-7, between Veterans Parkway and Pine Island Rd. The project is tentatively scheduled to begin in 2013. The next phase is to bring city water, and possibly city sewer service, to two sections of Cape Coral north of Pine Island Rd. labeled North 1 and North 2. These projects are scheduled to begin in 2015 and 2017 respectively.

    The cost of the utility expansion in the past has been assigned to each parcel in the expansion area, and was payable over a period of 20 years at prevailing interest rates. At this time no specific cost has been announced.

    Lee County and the City of Cape Coral promote the Florida Yards and Neighborhoods program to encourage the use of native plants in residential yards to reduce water and fertilizer use. Its also a great way to reduce the amount of time and money spent on maintaining your lawn.
