I'm retired law enforcement and that gives me an extra edge in appraising as I have the opportunity to educate my clients in the appraisal process from ordering the appraisal, to the appraisal inspection, to the delivery of the appraisal report.  There are many types of appraisals and it is imperative that I, as an appraiser, be educated in the methods and techniques of appraising, as well as stay aware of the market trends that impact value in the real estate market.  I appraise all of Southern California and have flexible scheduling, competitive fees, quick delivery on most reports, saving you time and money.  I pride myself in communicating with my clients through the whole appraisal process so there are minimal surprises and so issues that may arise can be dealt with quickly and effeciently.  Appraiser since 2002.
