The decision

What is the residential property worth for this specific decision and effective date?

A buyer may want an appraisal that is separate from a lender’s process, particularly for cash transactions, private sales, or unusual residential properties.

The assignment begins with the intended use, intended users, property interest, effective date, and reporting needs—not a predetermined result.
