Estate Appraisals

Clarity for the decisions ahead. Settling an estate often calls for a property value as of a specific date. We provide current and retrospective appraisals, including date-of-death valuations, to help personal representatives, families, and their advisors make informed decisions. Each report is grounded in relevant market evidence and the needs of the assignment.

Pre-Listing Appraisals

Start with a well-supported opinion of value. Before putting your home on the market, an independent appraisal can help you and your real estate agent make informed pricing decisions. We evaluate the home’s condition, features, location, and comparable sales to provide a clear picture of its market value. It’s a useful starting point for setting an asking price and understanding how your property compares.

Pre-Purchase Appraisals

Know more before you make your move. Found a home you like, but unsure whether the asking price makes sense? An independent pre-purchase appraisal helps you understand the property's market value before buying. We analyze its location, condition, features, and comparable sales to provide a supported opinion of value for your purchase decision. This privately ordered appraisal does not replace an appraisal required by your lender.

Divorce Appraisals

An independent perspective during a transition. When a home is part of a divorce or separation, a well-supported valuation can provide a clear starting point for property discussions. We develop an impartial opinion of value as of the agreed or required date, with careful research, clear reporting, and professional communication throughout the assignment.

Assessment Appeals

A closer look at your property’s assessed value. If your property’s county real market value seems out of step with the market, an independent appraisal can help you evaluate it. We analyze the property and relevant sales as of the applicable assessment date, providing market evidence for a potential appeal. We’ll discuss your situation and whether an appraisal is a useful next step.

UAD 3.6 Appraisals

Local expertise. Updated reporting. For residential mortgage assignments requiring UAD 3.6, we prepare appraisals using the redesigned Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR). This updated format captures property characteristics in a more structured, detailed way. We coordinate the assignment’s scope and reporting requirements with the lender or appraisal management company.
