About
Important Notice: NO COMMERCIAL & NO PERSONAL PROPERTY I typically schedule inspections within 24–48 hours, with completed appraisal reports delivered within 5 business days after inspection, depending on assignment complexity and workload. All reports are comprehensive, well-supported, and clearly address the intended use and any relevant questions. To provide an accurate quote, please include the property address in your initial message. Appraisal Services Offered: I provide private residential appraisal and consulting services for the following purposes: • Pre-listing appraisals • Divorce and asset division • Estate and Date of Death valuations • Real estate planning • Immigration sponsorship • Guardianship matters • PMI removal • Bankruptcy • Bail bond appraisals (same-day service available with rush fee) • As-is and As-repaired valuations to support renovation decisions and ROI analysis • Expert witness testimony and litigation support I previously served as a forensic review appraiser for a large national lender and have extensive experience assisting attorneys and providing testimony in court proceedings. For cash buyers, I offer independent valuations to confirm whether a property is being purchased at fair market value, even when an appraisal is not required for closing. Why a Pre-Listing Appraisal Matters: In a shifting market, proper pricing is critical. Homes that are not priced correctly often experience extended marketing times and price reductions. A pre-listing appraisal allows sellers to price strategically and confidently, supported by an independent, defensible valuation. Please note: the standard Thumbtack quote is based on a non-complex appraisal for a typical home or condominium and serves only as a starting point. Final fees depend on property type, complexity, and intended use. I take pride in educating clients about market value, market trends, and the appraisal process. I enjoy the flexibility of this profession, meeting new people, and working with a wide variety of real estate. I invite you to read my reviews—I bring many years of experience and a strong reputation for professionalism, accuracy, and reliability.

I hired Empire a couple years back, however did not review the service at the time. I would absolutely hire Empire Appraisals again and recommend the service.

Delivered within the time table we agreed on. Very punctual. Our home had unique characteristics the appraiser helped find comparable properties. Did feel like the appraiser had a bit of a negative outlook on the real estate market however.

Danielle was extremely professional, prompt and knew her field well. She asked important questions, and helped me understand what was needed for the appraisal.

Danielle was very thorough and professional in preparing the appraisal. The property was much larger than neighboring homes, which made it difficult to compare. I highly recommend Danielle and would certainly use Empire Appraisals again.
