What happens when an appraisal comes in lower than expected? How does an appraiser determine a property's worth? And what do the latest changes to appraisal reporting mean for buyers, sellers, and real estate agents?

This week on The Next Move, Jennifer Bruns and Matt Dick welcome Stephen King with Culp Real Estate Appraisals to talk about a part of the real estate transaction that can raise plenty of questions.

We're covering how appraisals work, what appraisers look for, and why a home's contract price doesn't always match its appraised value.

We're also discussing the newly implemented Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD) 3.6 and redesigned Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR), including what the changes mean for appraisal documentation, lenders, REALTORS®, and transactions in Central Texas.

And because real estate is local, we're talking about the challenges of appraising properties in Bell County, including acreage, pools, solar panels, renovations, and unique homes that don't always have an obvious comparable sale.

Whether you're buying, selling, or working in real estate, this episode will help you better understand the appraisal process and the questions worth asking.

What does it look like to start a real estate career at a young age, build a presence on social media, and navigate two very different real estate markets?

This week on The Next Move, Jennifer Bruns and Matt Dick welcome Alexis “Lexi” Lohse, a Virginia REALTOR® serving the Hampton Roads area.

We're talking about what drew Lexi into real estate, the opportunities and challenges of starting young, and how social media plays a role in building relationships and growing a business.

We're also comparing real estate in Virginia and Texas. From the way agents do business to the differences buyers and sellers encounter, we'll explore what makes these markets unique.

Whether you're a newer agent, someone trying to figure out social media, or simply interested in how real estate works outside Central Texas, there's something here for you.
