Can You Write Off Home Appraisal Fees?
Short answer: No: appraisal fees for buying or refinancing a home aren't deductible.
Appraisals for a charitable donation or casualty loss claim are a different case.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
