For real estate in foreclosure, owners, banks or mortgage lenders need to know the difference between fair market value and "quick disposition" value, to determine the potential equity position or charge-off liability. No matter if the property is residential or commercial real estate determining fair market value in a changing market is critical to reducing standing inventory.  

District Appraisals is the leading real estate foreclosure appraisal company providing residential home, apartment, industrial and commercial appraisal and REO foreclosure appraisal services. As a nationwide appraisal company we provide phased appraisal snapshots of fair market value for bank, mortgage lending, and mortgage servicing clients as well as "quick sale" appraisal forecasts that understand your timeline. Our real estate foreclosure appraisal services owners, banks, foreclosure & legal service companies, law firms, individual attorneys, home mortgage lenders, various loan service companies, institutions that make personal loans, CMBS lenders, banks, credit unions, and savings banks with foreclosure appraisal services in all 50 states.

Owners of homes and property in foreclosure, of course, present special appraiser challenges. The owner or the tenant may be unwilling to allow an inspection of the property. If they have abandoned the property already, they may have neglected care of the home for some time -- or worse, caused damage. Each of our expert foreclosure home appraiser specialists has the experience and training to deal with the special dynamics of foreclosure appraisal, and you should not hesitate to rely on our nationwide foreclosure appraisal services.

For home foreclosures for sale and properties that have already reverted to Bank REO status (Real Estate Owned), you likewise will be interested in an expert home appraiser that can provide a quick disposition appraisal services. As a lender you may want to know and compare three values: As-is, as repaired, and "quick sale." This type of real property appraisal must be done by an experienced licensed or certified home appraiser (foreclosure real estate specialist). The appraisal must represent the value of the real property "As Is" and "As if Complete" (with the required completion items necessary to make the property marketable at full market value and commensurate with competing properties in the area). 

The proposed work could also be somewhere in-between a partial "fixer-upper" with minimal investment in repairs. In this type of appraisal assignment the appraiser can appraise the property "As Is" or "As If Complete" with minimal repairs to quickly market the property. Again, as expert foreclosure appraiser specialists we understand your timeline and the unique circumstances of lender and Bank REO properties, as well as the special information you'll need -- including competing listings, market trends, days on the market and specific market conditions. In addition, a foreclosed home for sale that has been on the market over 90 days requires an updated appraisal from an independent appraiser to determine a sale price as market conditions may have changed.
