Retrospective Appraisals are a common part of estate settlement when there is a transfer of ownership due to death or inheritance. The home is valued based on a prior date, typically referred to as “date of death”, and historical data. When a Retrospective Appraisal is needed for tax purposes, an attorney or accountant may order the appraisal or have a family member or executor select an appraiser. Pacific Home Appraisal strives to deliver a stress free experience under these difficult circumstances.

Non-Lending appraisal assignments cover a broad range of purposes. Pre-purchase, pre-listing, divorce settlement, insurable value and lease/rental rate assessment are a few of the many circumstances that may benefit from an appraisal. These services are available on residential condominium, single family and 2-4 unit properties. All Pacific Home Appraisals are USPAP compliant and adhere to strict standards of quality.

The purchase or sale of a home can be an exciting yet demanding time for all parties involved. Pacific Home Appraisal stands out from the crowd with unmatched customer service and communication.

A home’s measurement is a crucial part of it’s value as what physically exists is commonly different from what is listed on public records. Pacific Home Appraisal offers home measurement using the industry-wide ANSI® Z765-2021 Standard to determine any unpermitted areas and guarantee accurate MLS reporting.

Floorplan sketching services are an accurate and affordable way to market your home. Using accurate GLA and rounded room dimensions, a floor plan sketch will show approximate locations of interior walls, doors, appliances and plumbing fixtures.

There are many variables that contribute to a home’s value. Often times when a home is significantly larger or smaller than it’s neighbors, is in a unique location or historical district, of unique architecture or has an unusually sized lot, these assignments become complex in nature. Pacific Home Appraisal values all unique residential properties with attention to detail and thorough research to assure appropriate comparables are selected.
