Real Estate Appraisal Services in San Mateo, San Mateo County, California
CA-Appraiser.com serves San Mateo and the rest of San Mateo County with certified residential real estate appraisals for purposes other than lending. A central Peninsula city between San Francisco and Silicon Valley, San Mateo is a premium, tightly held market.
Our specialty is valuations that real people and institutions rely on: step-up in basis for inherited property, equitable division in divorce, probate and trust administration, and Proposition 19 transfers — each delivered in plain, well-supported language.

For San Mateo we provide USPAP-compliant desktop appraisals — built from MLS data, public records, and photographs — accepted by the IRS, courts, attorneys, and financial institutions.
