Orange home appraisals in 24 hours

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

Orange has Old Towne, where Craftsman bungalows and Victorians fill the blocks around the Plaza, plus postwar tracts across the flats and horse properties and hillside homes out toward Orange Park Acres and Santiago Canyon. I value homes here for trusts, probate and divorce, often when an old family house has to be sorted out quickly.

What I look at in Orange

  1. 1

    In Old Towne, exterior changes go through historic design review, so I note original siding, windows and porches, and any work that looks unapproved, since buyers here check.

  2. 2

    Out in Orange Park Acres and along Santiago Canyon, I value acreage, horse facilities, trail access and brush exposure, and compare with other large-lot sales rather than tracts.

  3. 3

    Across the postwar flats, remodel level and freeway exposure near the Orange Crush, the 55 and the 22 matter most, so I keep sales on comparable streets.

What to photograph

Photograph the porch, original windows and siding, built-ins and floors in an Old Towne house, plus any back unit. For acreage near Santiago Canyon, show the barn, arena, fencing, trail gate and brush clearance.

Orange questions

Dad's Old Towne Orange house is in probate, what do we do about value?
The court's referee will value it for the inventory, and many heirs also want their own appraisal to price it or settle a buyout. In Old Towne I look for sales of other historic homes, note the original features and any back unit, and use the date you need.
Does a back house or garage apartment add value in Orange?
If it's permitted and in decent shape, it usually does, and I measure that against sales of similar properties with and without one. Some older Orange lots have a unit of uncertain history, so I check records and describe it plainly before deciding how much weight it carries.
When would I get the report for a Orange 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.
