Why Accurate Appraisals Matter
A professional real estate appraisal is more than just a number—it's a critical tool that protects your financial interests. Whether you're securing a mortgage, challenging your property tax assessment, removing private mortgage insurance (PMI), or dividing assets in a divorce, an accurate appraisal ensures you have the information needed to make confident decisions.

Our commitment to accuracy and objectivity has made us a trusted partner for thousands of property owners and professionals across the Denver metro area.
Comprehensive Appraisal Services
Residential Property Appraisals
Our residential appraisal services cover all property types throughout the Denver area, including single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, multi-family properties, and luxury estates. We provide detailed valuations for purchase transactions, refinancing, estate planning, tax appeals, divorce settlements, and more.
Each residential appraisal includes a comprehensive analysis of your property's features, condition, location, and current market position. We examine comparable sales in your neighborhood, evaluate market trends affecting property values, and consider all factors that contribute to your home's worth. Our reports meet USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) guidelines and are accepted by all major lenders and financial institutions.
Investment Property Analysis
Real estate investors need accurate data to make profitable decisions. Our investment property analysis services provide detailed evaluations that go beyond basic market value. We assess rental income potential, analyze comparable investment properties, evaluate market conditions and trends, and provide insights into future appreciation potential.
Whether you're considering a fix-and-flip opportunity, evaluating a rental property purchase, or managing a real estate portfolio, our investment analysis helps you understand the true value and income potential of any property. We serve individual investors, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and property management companies throughout the Denver metro area.
Estate Settlement Valuations
During the challenging time of settling an estate, you need accurate property valuations for tax purposes, equitable distribution among heirs, and probate proceedings. Our estate appraisal services provide defensible valuations that meet IRS requirements and stand up to scrutiny from tax authorities and legal professionals.
We work sensitively with families, attorneys, executors, and trustees to provide thorough documentation and clear explanations of our valuation methodology. Our estate appraisals include retrospective valuations (date of death appraisals), current market value assessments, and detailed reports suitable for legal and tax purposes.
Our Appraisal Process
1. Initial Consultation We begin by understanding your specific appraisal needs, timeline, and any special considerations. Whether you're working with a lender deadline, court date, or tax filing requirement, we'll accommodate your schedule. 2. Property Inspection Our certified appraisers conduct a thorough on-site inspection, examining your property's interior, exterior, condition, features, and improvements. We take detailed measurements, photographs, and notes to ensure our analysis is comprehensive and accurate. 3. Market Research & Analysis We research recent comparable sales in your area, analyze current market trends, and evaluate factors affecting property values in your specific neighborhood. Our local expertise ensures we understand the nuances of Denver's diverse real estate markets. 4. Valuation & Report Preparation Using industry-standard appraisal approaches (Sales Comparison, Cost, and Income approaches as applicable), we determine your property's fair market value. Our detailed reports include supporting documentation, comparable sales analysis, photographs, and a clear explanation of our methodology. 5. Delivery & Support We deliver your completed appraisal report within the agreed timeframe and remain available to answer questions or provide clarification as needed. Our reports are accepted by all major lenders, government agencies, and legal professionals.
