Private Purchase & Sale Appraisals

Not every real estate transaction involves a traditional listing or mortgage lender. An independent appraisal can help private parties understand market value before agreeing to a price or completing a transfer.

Common private transactions

• Sales between family members
• Transfers between co-owners
• Landlord-to-tenant purchases
• Business partner buyouts
• Estate beneficiary buyouts
• Off-market purchases and sales
• Gifts or family transfers

Independent value before the decision

A professional appraisal gives the client an independent, documented opinion of value based on the property and relevant market evidence. The appraisal does not set the parties’ final transaction price; it provides information they can use in making that decision.
