Corona home appraisals in 24 hours

Signed desktop appraisals of Corona houses and condos, from your photos and the records, emailed within a day of payment.

Corona homes range from Victorian and Craftsman houses around the Grand Boulevard circle to 1970s and 1980s stucco tracts and newer planned neighborhoods climbing into South Corona below the Santa Ana Mountains. I get asked for values here when a trust has to be settled, when a Prop 19 transfer needs support, or when a divorce can't wait for a site visit.

What I look at in Corona

  1. 1

    Many houses around the Circle date from Corona's lemon-grove era and vary a lot. I note the porch, woodwork, windows and foundation in your photos and compare with other older homes, not tract sales.

  2. 2

    In South Corona, around Eagle Glen and the hills near Dos Lagos, valley views and lots backing to open slopes count. I judge both from your back-yard photos and keep comparables on similar lots.

  3. 3

    Homes against the foothills sit in brush country, and the 91 shapes access to Orange County. I check the fire maps, freeway noise and slope before choosing sales.

What to photograph

For an older house near the Circle, photograph the porch, original woodwork, the electrical panel and any crawlspace access. For a South Corona home, show the view, the slope beyond the fence and the solar panels.

Corona questions

Does Prop 19 mean I need an appraisal of mom's Corona house?
It often helps. Under Prop 19, how much of a parent's low tax base carries over to a child depends partly on the home's market value at the transfer. I can document that value as of the transfer date; whether the exclusion applies is for your tax adviser or the assessor.
Can you value our Corona house as of the day dad passed last year?
Yes. A retrospective appraisal uses sales from around that date, not today's. If the house has changed since, like a kitchen redone after he died, tell me what it was like then and I'll value it as it stood that day.
When would I get the report for a Corona home?
Within 24 hours of the moment I have both your payment and your photos, weekends and holidays included. If you're not in a rush, the regular schedule is 5–10 business days at $299 or $449.

“I've prepared desktop appraisals for every purpose on this list. Some situations still call for an in-person appraisal, though, so check with your attorney or tax advisor first to make sure a desktop report is right for yours.”
