Valuation for lender-owned and distressed real estate
REO & Foreclosure Appraisals
Residential valuation services for REO, foreclosure-related, and distressed property assignments. We consider the property’s condition, available access, and competitive market to develop an opinion of value suited to the client’s servicing, asset management, or disposition needs.
When it is useful
Understand condition, marketability, and value
- Current as-is valuations for lender-owned residential property

Frequently asked questions
Questions about reo & foreclosure appraisals
Can the appraisal reflect proposed repairs?
An as-repaired or completion-based analysis may be appropriate when the proposed work and assumptions are defined. Share the repair scope and available cost information when requesting a quote.
What if interior access is limited?
Tell us about access restrictions before the assignment begins. We will determine whether an appropriate scope can be established and explain the resulting assumptions and limitations.
For purchase or refinance assignments, see mortgage lending appraisals.
