Appraisal fees

Fees are quoted per assignment, in writing, before any work starts. There is no charge for a quote.

What sets the fee

• Property type. A single-family house and a 40-acre industrial tract are different problems.
• Complexity of the valuation problem. Partial takings, partial interests, retrospective dates, limited comparable data, and unusual property all add work.
• Deadline. Rush scheduling costs more because it displaces other work.
• Scope. How many approaches to value the assignment genuinely requires.

What does not set the fee

The value of the property, and the outcome. Tying a fee to a value conclusion is prohibited under USPAP, and for good reason. You are paying for the analysis, not for a number.

Turn times

Measured from our own delivered jobs since 2024. Residential form assignments run about three days from order to delivered report, with nine out of ten going out inside eight days. VA assignments average five days. Narrative and commercial reports typically take two to five weeks. Complex eminent domain assignments run longer. These are what we do on average, not a promise on a specific file. Your date comes with your quote.

Billing

Invoices go out on delivery, net 30 unless your engagement says otherwise. Non-lender clients ordering estate, divorce, or tax appeal work may be asked for payment at delivery.
