Pomona home appraisals in 24 hours

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

Pomona has a deep stock of older homes: Victorians and Craftsman houses in Lincoln Park, 1920s Spanish houses and postwar ranch tracts, plus newer hillside homes in Phillips Ranch. I appraise Pomona homes for probate and trusts, for divorces, and for owners trying to decide what an older house is worth before or after repairs, usually with a deadline already set.

What I look at in Pomona

  1. 1

    Lincoln Park is a historic district of Victorian, Craftsman and Spanish revival homes. I note original woodwork, windows and porches, and whether past repairs fit the house or fight it.

  2. 2

    Phillips Ranch and the streets near Ganesha Park sit on hills with views across the valley. I compare them with each other, not with the flat older blocks, and note the slope and any HOA.

  3. 3

    Older Pomona houses can hide big repair needs: foundations, galvanized plumbing, old wiring and roofs. I judge condition from your photos of the panel, the water heater and any visible cracks.

What to photograph

For an older house, photograph the porch, the original woodwork and windows, the electrical panel, the water heater and any foundation cracks. In Phillips Ranch, show the view from the yard, the slope behind it and any community pool.

Pomona questions

Will the appraisal on my Pomona house drop because it needs a lot of work?
If the work is real, yes, because buyers price it in. Old Pomona houses often need foundation, plumbing or wiring work, so I pick sales of other fixers and compare yours fairly. If you send repair bids or an inspection report, I can describe the problems more precisely.
What date does a probate appraisal use for a house in Pomona?
Usually the date of death, even if that was months ago. I use Pomona sales that closed around that date and describe the house as it was then. The probate referee assigned to the case files the official inventory value, but heirs and executors often want their own appraisal for the tax basis or a buyout.
When would I get the report for a Pomona 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.”
