Review and Quality Control
In the lending industry, appraisal reviews are becoming more important in the loan process and for quality control. Banks, mortgage companies, and attorneys rely on Capital Real Estate Advisors, Inc. to provide independent real estate appraisal reviews of residential, multi-family, mixed use and commercial appraisals. Our appraisers expertly report their review results on any of the common review forms, client specific review forms, or in narrative format in accordance with the client’s specific guidelines.

In review of the income approach, our appraisers analyze any contract rents for the subject property as well as market rents, pending rents and asking rents from the market as of the date of the appraisal. We analyze the appraiser’s development of the Gross Rent Multiplier and Capitalization Rate, determine accuracy and applicability and check the market for comparable data. In review of the cost approach, our appraisers analyze the market for land sales, as well as current listings and pending sales in the subject’s market area as of the date of the appraisal. We also examine the cost and depreciation figures and report on their accuracy.

Tax Assessment Appeal and Consulting
It is not uncommon for residential and commercial real estate owners to be paying large real estate tax bills or have large increases in real estate taxes from year to year. Because real estate taxes are based on the assessed value of the subject property, it is important to know if the property is assessed correctly. If the property is assessed to high, you may be paying more than your fair share of the real estate taxes. Our appraisers will analyze the current real estate market, and expertly prepare an appraisal of the subject property as well as provide expert testimony and guidance in the assessment appeal process.
