Built for you.
Not a bank.
A guess is expensive. The wrong number can stall a divorce, divide heirs, or leave thousands on the table when you sell. You deserve a value you can stand behind.

Got questions?
How much does an appraisal cost?
A typical single-family home, townhome or condo appraisal is $550. Complex properties (unique design, acreage or multi-family) may cost more. Call for an exact quote.
What affects my home's value?
Recent comparable sales in your area, your home's size, condition and location, current market trends, and any upgrades or renovations.
How do I prepare for the inspection?
Appraisers focus on objective data, but a clean, well-kept home still helps. Make sure every area is easy to get to, take care of small repairs, and have a list of recent updates ready.
How long does it take?
The on-site visit usually takes 30-60 minutes. Your report is often ready within a few days, depending on the property.
Is an appraisal the same as a home inspection?
No. An appraisal estimates market value. A home inspection checks for structural or mechanical issues. They serve different purposes.
Can I use an old appraisal?
Most legal cases need an appraisal from the last 6 months. If the market has changed, you'll need an updated report.
