Frequently Asked Questions

The pricing of an appraisal is based on the type of appraisal requested (Desktop, Drive-By, or Full Appraisal), it's intended use, the property type (Single Family, Condo, Etc.), and the complexity of the property itself. Typically condominiums are the least complex property types with average cost for a desktop appraisal starting at $400.

A Full Appraisal Inspection involves a complete Interior/Exterior inspection of the Subject Property and it's accessory structures (Garage, Storage Sheds, Etc.) Typically the inspection begins with exterior measurements and photos taken of the Subject and accessory structures. Once the exterior inspection is complete, a full interior inspection is performed. The interior inspection consists of measurements and photos of every room of the subject and accessory structures.

Depending on the size, complexity and condition of the property, the inspection can take as little as 30 minutes. Larger, complex properties in poor condition can take significantly more time to complete.
