Appraisal
An Appraisal is an opinion of value performed by a professional state-licensed or -certified appraiser. It complies with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), which requires appraisers to be independent, objective, and impartial. An appraiser must remain unbiased and produce an opinion of value that is credible, or worthy of belief. An appraisal by a competent professional appraiser is the most reliable of all valuation products.
