County Appraisal District Chief Appraiser. The chief appraiser is the head of the county appraisal district appraisal office. The board of directors appoints and directs the chief appraiser and it also determins the chief appraiser's compensation.
The appraiser is not a whole house inspector, engineer, architect, electrician, plumber, H.V.A.C. technician or contractor. The appraiser briefly walks through the house to get an idea of the general condition and room count. An appraisal is not a guarantee of condition. The appraiser will ask about any visible problems and those which may not be visible, and will do his/her best to gauge any impact on value attributable to those problems.
