A parasite-prone peacock, for example, is more likely to be discovered by a discerning peahen because parasite infestation demonstrates itself as damage to plumage (which is more noticeable given the peacock's bright coloration).
An appraisal is a judgment of something, especially an estimate of how much it's worth. Usually you need an expert to give an official appraisal. If you were selling a house, you'd need an expert in real estate to give an appraisal of how much it's worth â that's an official estimate of how much you could sell it for. But this word can also be used in other less formal situations that call for a judgment or opinion of some sort.
An appraisal is an independent written opinion that identifies the propertyâs market value. This document is generally required by the lenderâs regulator. The fee can vary widely depending on the type and location of the property, but you can count on paying as little as $300.00 or as much as $750.00.
