Common questions

How long does a real estate appraisal take?
Most residential appraisals are delivered within a few business days of inspection. Commercial assignments take longer because income and market analysis is more involved. PahRoo confirms the turnaround in writing before the engagement begins.
What is the difference between an appraisal and a realtor price opinion?
An appraisal is prepared by a state-certified appraiser under professional standards and includes a signed certification. A broker price opinion is a sales estimate and carries no such certification. Lenders, courts, and assessment boards accept the former.
Do you appraise property for divorce and estate matters?
Yes. PahRoo prepares valuations with a specific date of value for divorce, probate, and estate settlement, and provides expert testimony where the valuation is contested.
Can an appraisal help lower my property taxes?
An independent appraisal provides the evidence an appeal needs when an assessment overstates market value. It does not guarantee a reduction, but it replaces opinion with documented analysis.
Which areas does PahRoo serve?
