Karen Fox

"Kevin was extremely helpful working with me. He even came on his birthday to take pictures of the home. This is the first time I have done an appraisal and did not understand the amount of work required! He did an excellent job and I would certainly recommend him to anyone needing an appraisal. Thank you Kevin"

Kim Struthers

"Kevin did an excellent job appraising a house and property that is in our family trust. It was a bit of an unusual scenario with a very old home that had been added onto as well as some outbuildings all on a larger piece of property. He did a great job still finding some good comps and coming up with the market value. Very professional and great to work with, we would highly recommend Kevin as an appraiser!"

AJ Larsen

"Kevin was awesome and went above and beyond expectations! We needed to have a home appraised before listing, because there was some discrepancy between the County records and a previous MLS listing's square footage number. He came out and did the appraisal and as a special request he was able to provide the information we needed and a sketch within a couple hours so we could get the house listed as a soon as possible."

Jason Skinrood

"I ordered an appraisal for a property in preparation of listing it for sale. Kevin was able to quickly schedule the inspection and complete the report within just a few days. The process to order was easy and his pricing was more than fair. His valuation made sure we didn't list the home for too low."

Don Jensen

"I was referred to KC Appraisals by a realtor I've used who said this is the appraiser she trusts the most. I called on Friday and the appraisal was done Monday with the report provided by that Friday. Kevin was very good about explaining his process both in person and in the report. The property appraised is a twin home, which is rather unique, but Kevin found several comparisons in a nearby area. He later found a comparison within the actual neighborhood as my property, although a little dated. He applied inflation factors and adjusted his original assessment based on the new information. His thoroughness in finding relevant properties made a big difference."

Kay Norman

"Kevin was great to work with all through the appraisal process. I would recommend him if you are in need of a home appraisal."
