Residential Appraisals and Testimony for Attorneys

I sell and appraise residential real estate (and testify in court) for everybody except conventional lenders and bureaucracies. ​

Good referrals for me are attorneys specializing in civil, probate, bankruptcy, trusts and estates, family law, divorce, collaborative, real estate, or elder law; “for sale by owner”’s; accountants; Realtors estimating a listing or selling price; and Buyers or Sellers (especially an off-MLS sale, like one involving a relative, friend, or neighbor). ​

I have been accepted as an expert witness in Hillsborough County and my appraisal has been accepted in Pinellas and Pasco. I don’t appraise for conventional lenders.

I can appraise the house as of a certain date in the past or present. I can appraise it subject to repairs (no extra charge as long as I know before I go). I can include pricing advice (free). I can show the value as of two different dates (50% more). Add 25% to show more than one subject condition. Add 25% to show more than type of value (normal, short sale, foreclosure). There are a lot of different ways to do appraisals.

I can usually get out to see the place within a week. Then the appraisal takes about a week from when I see it.

The easiest way to start is to email appraiserpwd@gmail.com with the contact info of your client as well as the address of the property being appraised.

Home Selling Tips

A Seller needs to do three things right to get a home sold Hire a Realtor with a high close rate (the percentage of their listings that actually sell); Price it right (“Price it Right and You’re Done!”) so your competition doesn’t kill you; Make it easy for other Realtors to show (we all sell the same inventory). If these three things are correct, it’ll sell. If not, no amount of marketing will sell it. How houses sell Realtors put their listings into the inventory, and offer a commission to any Realtor who can sell it. So any Realtor can sell any house, no matter who listed it. Most sales happen when a Realtor pulls a listing that fits the buyer from the MLS. The buyer originally contacted the Realtor on a different listing which just didn’t turn out to be the right one for them. Ads and open houses attract general prospects who may buy something some day. They rarely sell the home advertised. If it’s priced right it’ll sell without these. If it’s not...
