Appraisals or general consultation are often provided to individuals that feel that
they are in need of a trained, local perspective. Transferees are often in town for
a relatively short home shopping excursion and may experience inexperienced agents,
unusual market conditions, or limited supply situations with wide price variations and
feel uncomfortable making an offer. The expertise of the appraiser can assist by
providing an estimate of value or value range, discuss market conditions, individual
preferences, marketability issues, value trends, and general neighborhood strengths and
weaknesses that are above an beyond the agent's ability. We also have appraisers
that are licensed agents and can serve as a "Buyer's Agent". This is an
area that we expect to have an increased involvement.
