Our commitment to accuracy, expertise, personalized service, and industry knowledge sets us apart. We appraise nearly all asset classes, and offer the following specialized services to our clients:
Trust and Estate Appraisals: Our firm has extensive experience in the valuation of Minority Interests in Real Estate holding companies. Partial interests are often non-controlling, and a discount for lack of control and lack of marketability from the prorata value of this interest can typically be supported. We have successfully applied this discount for IRS and estate planning purposes hundreds of times over the years, significantly reducing the taxable value of our client’s holdings. Whether you require a simple retrospective appraisal or a minority interest valuation, we can assist you.
Specialized Property Types: Our appraisal services extend beyond traditional commercial properties. We have specialized knowledge in assessing unique property types such as healthcare facilities, ground leases, daycare and educational institutions, and shelters.
Review Work: Our lender clients turn to us when they need an objective opinion of another appraiser’s work. We will ensure that the appraisal being reviewed is USPAP compliant and possesses sufficient information and analysis to provide credible assignment results.
Feasibility Studies: Planning a new development or considering a property renovation? Our feasibility studies provide valuable insights into the financial viability and potential returns of your commercial real estate project. We evaluate market demand, construction costs, regulatory requirements, and projected income to help you make informed decisions and minimize risks.
Rent Analysis: For property owners and landlords, understanding the rental market is crucial for setting competitive rental rates. Our rent analysis services help you determine optimal rental prices based on market trends, tenant demand, and property features. Additionally, when a lease stipulates a “Market Rent” renewal option, we can provide you with a Market Rental Value opinion prepared by an MAI-designated appraiser.
Dispute Resolution: In the event of disputes related to property values or real estate transactions, our appraisers offer expert assistance in resolving conflicts. We provide impartial and well-supported appraisal reports that can be used as evidence during negotiations, arbitration, or mediation. Trust our expertise to help you navigate complex situations and reach fair resolutions.
Tax Assessment Support: Our appraisers are experienced in providing assistance for property tax assessment purposes. We can conduct detailed valuations to ensure your property is assessed at its fair market value, helping you optimize your tax position. Our expertise in property valuation methodologies and local tax regulations ensures accurate and defensible assessments.
Expert Witness Services: In addition to our appraisal expertise, we offer expert witness services for legal proceedings related to commercial real estate. Our appraisers are experienced in providing expert testimony and assisting in litigation cases, offering unbiased and professional opinions based on thorough research and analysis.
