Residential Appraisal Services

Purchase & Refinance Appraisals (URAR/1004)

The most common appraisal type for mortgage lending. Includes a complete interior and exterior inspection of the property, neighborhood analysis, and comparison to recent sales of similar properties. We provide detailed, USPAP-compliant reports that meet all GSE (Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac) requirements.

Fees may be higher for complex properties, large acreage, waterfront locations, rural areas, or rush orders. Contact us for an exact quote.

Pre-Listing Appraisals

An independent value opinion before your home goes on the market. Pre-listing appraisals help homeowners and agents price more confidently, avoid overpricing, and reduce surprises during the contract stage.

Cash Buyer Appraisals

Independent residential appraisals for cash buyers who want to confirm that the contract price is supported before closing. This is useful when there is no lender appraisal, the property is unique, or the buyer wants stronger value support before committing cash.

Exterior-Only Appraisals (2055)

A drive-by appraisal that evaluates the property from the exterior and public data sources. No interior inspection is performed. Commonly used when lenders need a cost-effective valuation with a faster turnaround.

Condominium Appraisals (1073)

Specialized valuations for condominium units, including analysis of the condo project, HOA, and comparable unit sales. We're experienced with all condo types from large complexes to small boutique buildings.

Estate & Probate Appraisals

Independent valuations for estate settlement, inheritance, trust administration, probate matters, and related legal or tax needs. Current value and retrospective date-of-death assignments are available when appropriate.

Divorce Appraisals

Neutral residential appraisals for divorce, mediation, and equitable distribution matters when a credible property value is needed for negotiations or settlement.

PMI Removal Appraisals

Current market value appraisals for homeowners who may have enough equity to cancel private mortgage insurance and lower their monthly payment.

Retrospective & Date of Death Appraisals

Appraisals with a prior effective date for estate, tax, trust, and legal matters when current market value is not the relevant number.

Multi-Family Appraisals (1025)

Income property appraisals for 2–4 unit residential properties. Includes income approach analysis, rent comparisons, and expense evaluation in addition to the standard sales comparison approach.

Field Reviews (2000)

A desk or field review of another appraiser's work. We verify the accuracy of the original appraisal by reviewing the report, inspecting the property exterior, and analyzing the comparable sales used.

Hybrid Appraisals

Hybrid residential appraisal assignments for lenders and appraisal management companies when the scope of work, property data collection, and assignment conditions support a credible report.

Update & Completion Inspections (1004D)

Certification updates, final inspections for new construction, and repair/alteration completion verifications. We confirm that conditions from the original appraisal have been met.

Desktop Appraisals

A valuation completed without a physical inspection, using MLS data, public records, and other data sources. Accepted by GSEs for eligible transactions.

Land Appraisals

Vacant land and lot valuations for lending, estate planning, tax appeals, and development feasibility. We analyze zoning, highest and best use, and comparable land sales.
