Services

 We​​ have extensive experience in providing valuation services for estates. When you have lost someone close to you, it is invaluable to have a professional, objective opinion of their real estate to assist you in making difficult decisions in regard to that real estate. If needed we are able to provide your attorney or accountant with a quality report for use in settling an estate. We can also provide reports to the IRS in regard to the tax issues involving the real estate.   We also have extensive experience in establishing values for family buyouts on property that certain family members wish to retain.

The division of real estate assets can be one of the more anxious phases of any divorce.  It is crucial that these assets be valued objectively.  It is equally critical that the appraisals being relied on for the asset valuations are deemed to be credible by an arbitrator, master, or judge. We have extensive experience in providing court room testimony. 

 Selling your home  or property is one of the most important financial decisions you will be making in your life. Whether you're doing it for the first time or if you have sold other homes you have owned, you're going to need professional, objective advice on what the market is doing and where to price your home. No one wants to price property they are going to sell too low and leave money on the table. And no one wants to get hurt financially by pricing their property too high and having it sit on the market unsold for months, perhaps even years on end. We will provide you with a professional, objective, disinterested third party analysis of the local market and how your home fits into that market. We will share information, gained from being in the appraisal business since 1992, on the marketability and value of your home. And we offer these same services to clients who are thinking of buying and are trying to determine if they are about to make a wise purchase on a home or property.  We also have extensive experience in establishing values for family buyouts on property that certain family members wish to retain.

Doing Bankruptcy appraisals is another one of our specialties. Bankruptcy valuations are important in providing you and your attorney  with the necessary information to assist you in getting your bankruptcy discharged. We provide reports for both Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Since 1992 we have been doing appraisals for Mortgages, Home Equity Loans and PMI removal.

We have experience in appraising new construction including draw inspections. We are FHA approved. Homeowners may contact us directly for PMI removal appraisals once they have a letter from their lender detailing what they need to have addressed in an appraisal report.
