We specialize in commercial appraisals for all property types. Our diverse experience, research and property analysis allow us to deliver quality property valuations in a consistent and timely manner. Our clients receive the highest quality standards, combined with the level of service that you would expect from a professional service company.

Commercial Appraisal Reports

Written appraisal reports are prepared according to one of three reporting options:
  • Appraisal Report
  • Restricted Use Appraisal Report
  • Form Report
It should be noted that for each of the three types of report, the appraiser conducts the same level of research, verification of pertinent information, and analysis. The primary differences in the reporting options are in the level of detail of the written report.

Specialized Appraisal Services

Real estate appraisals are needed for various reasons ranging from a buy/sell decision, investment analysis, tax purposes, divorce or estate settlement, or simply to have an accurate opinion of value for your property. In each instance an appraisal gives a credible, and supportable opinion of value. Craig Mays & Associates has proudly and professionally served Texas property owners since 1986.

            An Appraisal Report is the highest level of reporting detail. In the Appraisal Report the data and analysis used in the assignment are fully explained, addressing each item in the depth and detail as required by its significance. Specific analyses are reported for the subject property including a market analysis for the specific property type, description of the subject site, the building improvements and their current condition, an Ad Valorem tax analysis for the subject property, and a Highest and Best Use analysis is conducted. A complete explanation of the appraisal methods employed, and the valuation analysis of the property by each of the methods is explained in a step-by-step process. The Appraisal Report typically includes a variety of maps, graphics, and digital images of the subject property and comparables used in the analysis. An Appraisal Report format is typically requested for financial underwriting purposes, litigation, and investment analysis.
            In a Restricted Use Appraisal Report the conclusions of the appraisal are stated, but the data and analysis used in the appraisal to develop those conclusions do not need to be included in the report when the appraiser and client have agreed that a Restricted Use Appraisal is appropriate for the assignment. A Restricted Use Appraisal is typically not accepted for financial underwriting purposes. It is most appropriate for when an opinion of value is needed without the need for detailed explanation.
            A Form Appraisal Report is delivered in a standardized format of a few pages. It briefly summarizes the pertinent information of the subject property, the comparable sales and/or lease comparables, with an opinion of value conclusion. A Form Report type is typically requested to streamline the client's appraisal review process.
