MAI Appraisals, Appraisal Reviews, Tax Appeal Appraisals

An appraisal is a professional opinion of the value of a property. It is often used in the process of obtaining financing and to establish a market value for a sale. Regular appraisals may be required to assess the quality of a lender’s portfolio. Appraisals are often ordered by lenders, buyers, sellers, owners wishing to refinance, and investors.

An MAI designation by the Appraisal Institute means the appraiser exceeds the minimum state certification and licensing required of all appraisers. When you hire an MAI, you are getting the services of someone with specialized training and experience in the appraisal industry who adheres to specific standards and ethics and must fulfill continuing education requirements.
