They each have their uniqueness that needs to be evaluated, understood and appraised separately from other communities that are either much older and a part of the historical development of an area. Built in mid-century with their contribution to the post WWII growth. The new developments with their more modern conveniences, use a wider variety of building materials that are more soundly built with all the technological advantages of late 20th Century construction.

Reports are available in Hardcopy and/or PDF files. We apply thorough research employing all of the latest search engines for specific geographic areas in Southern California. These including the local Multiple Listing Services, Title Companies and their data as well as the recent development of data collection services which offer dynamic tools to help locate homes and properties similar to the one for which we have been contracted. The key to any good appraiser is finding the properties most similar in as many of the key factors such as gross living area (gla), site area, condition, style, room count and other similar features such as a fireplace, pool, spa, enclosed patio, guest house, material and other amenities that would differentiate the subject from the many possible comparables. We research all properties with special care to insure that each property, for which we are contracted, is compared to one that is as close in model similarities as possible. That is our trademark and it pays off in a much more accurate estimate of real estate value. 2007-05-20 Bruce Elowitt Article http://www.theappraisaldoctor.com/prices.html Our turn around time is usually within 3 working days from time of inspection.
