Home appraisals in San Benito County, by tomorrow

Every city and town in San Benito County, same fee, same 24 hours, written and signed by me.

San Benito County is Hollister, San Juan Bautista and a lot of open ranch land, with Tres Pinos and Paicines down Highway 25. Hollister's homes run from older streets off San Benito Street downtown to newer subdivisions at the edges of town and the golf homes at Ridgemark. When a Hollister house or a ranch has to be valued for a divorce or an estate, I can do it from your photos.

What I look at in San Benito County

  1. 1

    Hollister sits on an active fault, and in older parts of town you can see creep in curbs, sidewalks and walls. I look for cracks and settling in your photos and note what's been repaired.

  2. 2

    Ridgemark, the gated golf community south of town, has its own dues and its own sales, so I compare inside it first. Outside the gates, lot size and views of the hills carry more weight.

  3. 3

    San Juan Bautista is a small mission town where few homes sell in a year. I widen the search carefully and explain why each comparable from Hollister or the nearby hills fits.

Across San Benito County

San Benito County packs suburban Hollister, the mission town of San Juan Bautista and wide ranch and vineyard land in the hills to the south. Lot size, water and distance from town weigh heavily here, and I measure each from local sales.

What to photograph

Photograph cracks in the slab, driveway or walls, and the curb out front, since fault creep shows up there. On ranch land, take the well, fencing, barn and a wide shot of the land.

San Benito County questions

How much is our Hollister house worth for our divorce settlement?
A neutral appraisal answers that. I value the house as of the date your attorneys pick, using Hollister sales close in time and style, and I don't lean toward either spouse. Your photos and the public record are enough for me to start.
How quickly can I get a home appraisal in San Benito County?
I email the report within 24 hours of payment and your photos, any day of the week. There's no site visit to schedule in Hollister or out at the ranch, which is usually what slows appraisals down.
When would I get the report for a San Benito County 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.”
