It depends on your decision and the intended use. An estate appraisal may need a past effective date; a mortgage assignment may have lender-specific requirements; legal and commercial work may require different scopes. Tell us the purpose and we will review the appropriate assignment.
Automated estimates can be useful starting points, but an independent appraisal evaluates property-specific information and relevant market data for an identified use. Whether an appraisal is required depends on your lender, attorney, tax adviser or other decision-maker.
TVA offers residential appraisals and evaluates commercial and special-use assignments based on the property, location, scope and appraiser qualifications. Not every assignment will be accepted.
Fees vary by property type, complexity, location, effective date, report requirements and turnaround. Submit the property details for a specific quote.
Timing depends on scheduling, property access, research complexity and reporting needs. An anticipated timeline is discussed before acceptance.
Potentially. Retrospective appraisals require research that supports the requested earlier effective date. We review the date and available data before taking the assignment.
Whether you need a residential, commercial, estate, legal, or specialty appraisal, start with the property address and your reason for ordering. We’ll review the assignment details before quoting.
