Chicago Appraiser

Chicago Appraiser

When you think of an appraisal, you likely first think of determining a home’s value prior to a sale and purchase. While this is an important appraisal function, there are many other services that experienced Chicago appraisers at Allstate Appraisal can offer to a variety of clients. Whether you are a lender, are involved in litigation, or are a property owner, we can help. 

Commercial and Residential Appraisals

The bread and butter of most appraisal service providers is the valuation of property for financial transactions. Whether you are a commercial or residential property owner, a mortgage lender, or another party with an interest in a particular property, having an accurate valuation of the property is essential. 

There are many factors to take into consideration when determining the value of a residential or commercial property, and you can trust that our team will thoroughly assess all relevant considerations. We carefully review and re-review reports to ensure accuracy, and we have a multi-level review process so you can trust that our results are reliable. Contact our Chicago appraisers for commercial or residential property valuation today. 

Appraisal Reviews

When another party issues an appraisal report, it can be difficult to trust the report as accurate. You might suspect – or know – there are deficiencies in the appraisal that can significantly impact a transaction or business dealing. If you need the review of an appraisal, Allstate Appraisal is ready to help. 

Our team of appraisal review specialists is recognized as leaders when it comes to accurate and reliable reviews. We always provide credible support for our findings, and our reviews regularly assist with:

• Rebuttals
• Mortgage insurance claims investigations
• Current or retrospective pre and post-funding quality control
• Standard quality control due diligence
• Alleged Appraiser Negligence investigations/USPAP Compliance Reviews
• On-site investor tie-outs
• Pre-trade due diligence for Wall Street investors

Litigation Support and Expert Witnesses

Property purchases and sales are far from the only reason that some parties need an appraisal. There are many legal disputes that rely on accurate appraisals to be resolved, and any errors can result in unfair results of a lawsuit. We can conduct appraisals or review existing appraisals and serve as expert witnesses in many cases, including:

• Divorce Resolution
• Eminent Domain/Condemnation Appraisals

• Gifting Appraisals
• Charitable Contribution Appraisals
