Desktop Appraisal

A Desktop Appraisal is a valuation conducted without a physical inspection of the property. Instead, the appraiser relies on public records, MLS data, prior appraisals, property sketches, and other available information to estimate the property’s market value. Desktop appraisals are typically faster and less expensive than full appraisals, but they may be less detailed or precise due to the lack of an on-site evaluation.
