Appraisals

This is a written narrative report in compliance with applicable professional standards for the scope of work engaged for. Typically this product is requested for real estate asset valuation for purchase and sale agreements, mortgage financing, collateral evaluation, estate settlement, expert testimony, mediation/arbitration matters, insurable value, replacement cost studies, feasibility, and marketing purposes – to name but a few. This service is usually quoted on a per assignment basis on a flat, not to exceed amount.

Reviews

This is a written narrative report in compliance with USPAP Standards Rule 3 for Real Property Appraisal Review, Development and Reporting. Typically this product is requested when the client wishes to have a professional evaluation-critique done on an appraisal report to document compliance with professional, regulatory, and client documentary standards and overall reasonableness. It can also be a risk management tool to help uncover the strengths and weaknesses and/or special conditions that support the value opinion. An appraisal review assignment does not typically result in a different value opinion – however such services may be performed in compliance with USPAP if necessary and required by terms of engagement. This service can be provided either on a flat fee or hourly basis.
