Choose Standard when…
Someone else will scrutinize the report: an IRS examiner, a co-trustee, opposing counsel, a mediator, a court or an agency. The extra exhibits show the reader exactly what was compared and why.
Choose Basic when…
The value is mainly for your own decision or a straightforward filing. The analysis is identical, and you can upgrade to Standard later by paying the difference.
What we appraise
California single-family homes and condominiums, including townhomes and PUD homes. Luxury homes, large acreage and highly unique properties may need a custom quote.
What we don't
2–4 unit buildings, apartment buildings, commercial property and vacant land, and any appraisal for a mortgage or refinance.
Several properties?
Each property is its own appraisal. Tell us how many, and the delivery schedule, including how many fit in 24 hours, is confirmed before you're invoiced.
Payment
A secure online invoice arrives by email after your request is reviewed. Payment plus photos starts the clock.
No add-on charges
No mileage, no inspection fee, and a past valuation date costs the same as a current one.
Revision assurance
If a feature, the condition or the quality of the home was misread, the correction is free.
