Like most professional real estate appraisal companies, Tyke Appraisals, Inc conducts a thorough property inspection—measuring the home, documenting its layout and features (such as number of rooms, condition, improvements, and upgrades), and noting any amenities or drawbacks. We then research recent comparable sales in your area, analyze current market conditions, and compile a detailed report that provides an unbiased estimate of your property's fair market value.

Turnaround time can vary depending on the size and type of property (residential vs. commercial), but many clients note that Tyke Appraisals, Inc is known for its quick responses and efficient service. For a more precise timeline for a property or home appraisal, you can request an estimate when you first contact us.

Appraisals play an essential role in these transactions, helping clients make informed financial decisions. In fact, according to IBISWorld, the U.S. real estate appraisal industry is projected to reach a market size of $11.9 billion in 2026.
