๐Ÿ˜๏ธ Anacortes Home Appraisal Costs Explained (2025-2026 Guide) ๐Ÿ“Š

Thinking about purchasing a home in Anacortes with a VA loan? Let's talk about appraisal costsโ€”one of the most important expenses in your home-buying journey! ๐ŸŽฏ

๐Ÿ’ฐ What You'll Actually Pay: For 2025-2026, VA appraisals in Anacortes generally cost between the mid-$800s and $1,100. The exact amount depends on what type of property you're purchasing.

๐Ÿก Cost Breakdown: Here's how it works: single-family homes and individual condos are at the affordable end (mid-$800s), manufactured homes fall somewhere in the middle, and if you're looking at a 2-4 unit property, expect to pay closer to the $1,100 mark. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

โฑ๏ธ How Long Does It Take? Great news! The VA sets a standard of 14 business days for Washington state appraisals. That's roughly two weeks from when the appraiser gets your request to when your lender receives the completed report. During busy seasons, there might be slight extensions, but lenders work hard to maintain this timeline! โŒš

๐ŸŒŠ The Anacortes Advantage: Located in Skagit County, Anacortes follows Washington's uniform statewide VA fee schedule. This standardization means transparency and consistency across all VA transactions in the state! ๐ŸŒฒ

๐Ÿ” What Can Change Your Cost? A few factors might bump up your total: rush orders, complex properties (like unique waterfront homes Anacortes is known for), or additional lender administrative fees. Always ask your lender to break down the complete valuation costs! ๐Ÿ’ก

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; โ€œHe paid me to do it.โ€ David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a โ€œliveโ€ investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was Davidโ€™s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, โ€œbrokeโ€ her.โ€ The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run โ€œTrying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.โ€ Thatโ€™s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the howโ€ฆ and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentinaโ€™s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one womanโ€™s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as โ€œThe Corner on Blood.โ€ The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didnโ€™t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one manโ€™s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someoneโ€™s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the directorโ€™s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. โ€œThe Hulkโ€ was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But thatโ€™s all heโ€™d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. โ€œThe guilty have gone free,โ€ he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
