My Commitment

Whether you are a homeowner, commercial property owner, attorney, CPA or any other person in need of a real estate valuation service, Michael Mathis will provide you with an accurate value estimate of your property presented in a detailed and correct format so that you and whomever you appropriately share your appraisal report with will know that it is both credible and reliable.

My commitment

What that means

The appraisal world has over 100 forms. However, most appraisers think that the profession’s most common form, the 1004, is always the right form. It is not, and especially it is not if you are visiting this webpage. I will use the correct form, which is especially critical if you are dealing with government required appraisals. In many instances a cost savings possibility is no form, instead using a restricted narrative. No matter how the information is presented you can be assured that that you will be able to use the information to your benefit.

I will make sure to provide you with a report written in English, not Appraisal. Like any specialized industry, the appraisal industry has many technical terms. If you are in front of your doctor with a throbbing headache and feeling nauseous, it is accurate, but meaningless to hear you have veisalgia. More useful would be knowing that what you have is not serious, but rather, only a hangover. Similarly, you want a report that doesn’t give you a headache trying to read it.

My promise is that your report, while using appropriate appraisal jargon, will include translations that make special terms easy to read.  Of course, if you are a professional, looking for an expert opinion, the report will be written to the professional level that assures you of the best possibility of success for your situation, whether that it is litigation, negotiation or simply peace of mind.

Though your appraisal report will be well-written and comprehensible it will not be simple. Critical objective adjustments will not be estimated based on “my years of experience”, but whenever possible, will be developed using data obtained from your area then probed using linear and multiple regression analysis (complex math) and/or mean paired sales analysis. This additional work will allow for accurate value analysis and assure you of a quality report. And only a quality report will provide you with an accurate reliable value. Remember, an avoidable mistake of only 1% in the Southern California market, often can mean at least $5,000 in value difference. Who wants to lose that kind of change?
