What We Do

Appraisal services built
for every need

From single-family homes to commercial properties, we provide comprehensive valuation services backed by Montana licensing standards and decades of local market expertise.

Residential Appraisals

Single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and multi-unit residences. We deliver lender-ready reports that stand up to scrutiny — whether you're buying, selling, or refinancing.

Commercial Appraisals

Office buildings, retail spaces, industrial properties, and mixed-use developments. Our commercial valuations account for income potential, market conditions, and zoning considerations specific to Lewis & Clark County.

Review & Consulting

Review of existing appraisal reports, consultation on property disputes, estate planning valuations, and pre-listing price analysis. We help you make informed decisions with data, not guesswork.

Estate & Probate

IRS-compliant estate appraisals for probate, divorce settlements, and inheritance planning. We understand the sensitivity and precision these situations demand — and deliver reports that executors and attorneys can rely on.

Land & Acreage

Vacant land, ranch properties, timberland, and agricultural parcels throughout western Montana. We evaluate zoning, access, utilities, and terrain to give you an accurate land value.

Lender-Required Appraisals

We work directly with banks, credit unions, and mortgage companies throughout Montana. Our reports meet Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and state regulatory standards — on time, every time.
