In short don't waste 500 bucks on an appraisal that won't matter one iota.

Yeah, funny thing about the county appraisal. It is quite a bit less than the actual value. They don't bother to check unless you have done something obvious. We put on a new deck a year ago (replaced an old limestone/concrete porch that was starting to fall apart) so I'll bet that they will want to reappraise it soon. But luckily, it won't be ours by the time they get around to that.
