Home Appraisal FAQ
What areas does Firebird Appraisals & Consulting serve?
We appraise residential properties throughout the Phoenix metro (Maricopa County), including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Goodyear, Avondale, Buckeye, Queen Creek, Cave Creek and Fountain Hills, plus select Pinal County cities: San Tan Valley, Maricopa, Casa Grande, Florence and Apache Junction. Call 602-312-9571 to confirm coverage for a specific address.
How long does a home appraisal take?
Our typical turnaround is about 5 business days after the inspection. Very complex properties can take longer, and we'll tell you up front if so.
How much does a home appraisal cost?
Fees depend on the property's size, complexity, location and the purpose of the appraisal. Call 602-312-9571 or use the quote form for a quote.
Can I order an appraisal for my mortgage myself?
For most purchase and refinance loans, the lender or its appraisal management company orders the appraisal. For private purposes such as divorce, estate, pre-listing, or PMI removal (if your servicer allows it), you can hire us directly.
Do you do FHA and VA appraisals?
Yes. Gabe Trevizo is a VA designated appraiser and also completes FHA appraisals. VA appraisals are assigned by the VA, and FHA appraisals are ordered by the lender.
Can an appraisal help me remove PMI?
Often, yes. If your home has gained value, many servicers will consider removing PMI based on a current appraisal. Check with your servicer first about their loan-to-value requirement, seasoning rules, and whether they order the appraisal themselves.
What is a date-of-death appraisal?
It's a retrospective appraisal that estimates a property's market value as of a past date, usually the date of death, for estate and trust administration. Your CPA or attorney can confirm the effective date you need.
Are your divorce appraisals impartial?
Yes. We follow USPAP, and our fee never depends on the value. We can be hired by both spouses, one spouse, an attorney or a mediator. We don't provide expert witness or court testimony services.
Do you provide property tax appeal appraisals?
No. Firebird doesn't offer property tax appeal services.
