Our appraisal firm has nine residential appraisers and three commercial appraisers working for me on a case by case basis, which are all State Certified Residential or State Certified General. We do not use trainees. Several of us hold designations in some of the main appraisal organizations. If you are interested in an honest answer and really want to know the market value of your property from highly qualified professional appraisers in tune with the market then you should be serviced by our company. While we are not building or home inspectors any repairs we can readily observe as significant will be reflected in our Appraisal report of your property.
I am currently a State Certified General Real Estate Appraiser with 30 years of real estate appraisal experience and hold the SCRP (Senior Certified Relocation Professional), RAA (residential) and GAA (commercial/industrial) designations. My certification is the highest of all the appraisal licenses or certifications currently available in the states of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin. We have Appraisers approved by FHA/HUD for all areas that we service. Among noteworthy properties I have analyzed within my career are several Frank Lloyd Wright homes, including one of his most famous homes the "Isabel Roberts" home which was believed to be the only home that Wright both designed at the time of its original construction and some years later redesigned the home for alterations and updating that were made.
Our firm covers the Chicagoland market, including the counties of Cook, DuPage, Grundy, Kane, Kankakee, Kendall, Lake, McHenry, Will, in Northwest Indiana we service Lake & Porter Counties (including Gary & Surrounding areas) and in Southern Wisconsin we service Kenosha, Racine and Walworth counties. We appraise commercial, industrial, residential and special use properties.
Excellent quality appraisals within your market and at competitive prices. Appraisals follow as required all E-R-C, FHA, FNMA, FHLMC, HUD, USPAP and VA guidelines. If you would like to call to discuss additional details of my qualifications, fees or references, I would be pleased to do so.
All of our reports are available through broadband satellite transmission uploaded through the internet to you, as a .pdf (portable document format) file by Adobe Acrobat, e-Relay by ERC or the "Lighthouse" standard data format developed by Polaroid Digital Solutions, Inc. (formerly ACI development). For more information check out http://www.aciweb.com or call Scott Parks or Greg Opelka @ 1-(800)-234-8727. Point to point transmission and other internet transfer options are available as well. We are currently using ACI for Windows version 8.6, which is the most current appraisal software on the market with all the new 2005 appraisal forms which enables us to send you a complete appraisal electronically complete with digital photos, digital map, electronic sketch and laser signatures.
Your Relocation Appraisal Expert,
Donald J. Martin, SCRP, RAA, GAA
