VALUE OF OUR PROFESSIONAL APPRAISAL
Greater Clarity, Better Decisions
Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides independent, credible residential property valuations supported by thorough property inspections, comprehensive market research, and analysis of relevant comparable sales. Unlike automated online estimates, our professional appraisals consider the individual characteristics of each property and the market conditions that influence its value.
Whether you're making decisions about selling your home, dividing marital assets, settling an estate, or evaluating your property's current market value, a professionally prepared appraisal provides reliable information to help you make informed decisions.
A professional home appraisal can provide valuable insight in a variety of situations:
- Pre-listing appraisals: Gain a better understanding of your property's market value before setting an asking price.
- Homeowner and investor appraisals: Evaluate property value to support buying or selling decisions.
- Divorce appraisals: Obtain an independent valuation to help establish property value during asset division.
- Estate and probate appraisals: Establish a property's market value for estate administration, probate proceedings, or retrospective date-of-death valuations.
- PMI removal appraisals: Determine if your property's current value may support a request to remove private mortgage insurance, subject to your lender's requirements.
- Measurement services: Obtain accurate residential square footage measurements using standards established by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to support real estate listings and property valuation decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What information should I provide when requesting a property appraisal?
When requesting an appraisal, please provide the property's address, property type, and the purpose of the appraisal. It is also helpful to explain how the appraisal will be used, whether for a sale, refinancing, estate settlement, divorce proceedings, or another purpose. This information allows us to better understand your needs, determine the appropriate appraisal service, and provide an accurate fee quote.
How long does it take to receive an appraisal report?
Most residential appraisal reports are completed within approximately 3–5 business days following the property inspection. Turnaround times may vary depending on the complexity of the assignment and the availability of relevant market data. Expedited service may be available under certain circumstances. We will discuss the anticipated completion date with you when scheduling your appraisal.
Do I need to prepare my home before an appraiser visits?
You do not need to stage your home or complete renovations before the appraisal inspection. However, providing access to all interior rooms, garages, and relevant exterior areas will help ensure a thorough inspection. It is also helpful to have information available regarding recent improvements, renovations, or additions to the property. If you have a recent property survey or other relevant documentation, please feel free to share it with us.
Can Flores Real Estate Appraisals determine my property's value as of a past date?
Yes. Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides retrospective appraisals, which determine a property's market value as of a specific date in the past rather than its current value. These appraisals are commonly requested for estate settlements, date-of-death valuations, and legal or tax-related matters, including establishing historical property values that may be used in cost basis calculations for IRS purposes. Our analysis considers the property's characteristics and relevant market conditions as they existed on the effective date of the appraisal.
Will my appraisal report remain confidential?
Yes. Flores Real Estate Appraisals takes client confidentiality seriously. As professional appraisers, we adhere to the confidentiality requirements established by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). Appraisal reports, assignment results, and confidential client information are handled in accordance with these professional standards. We do not disclose confidential information or assignment results to unauthorized parties, except as permitted or required by applicable law and USPAP.
