Read our appraisal guides

At Prewitt Appraisals, private party and pre-listing appraisals start at $600, and divorce and estate appraisals start at $750 for one date of value, plus $500 for each additional date. Mortgage appraisals are ordered by the lender, which sets the fee.

The on-site inspection takes about 30 minutes to an hour and is scheduled Monday through Friday. The report is typically delivered 2–3 business days after the inspection.

Yes. A retrospective appraisal values a home as of a past date, such as the date of separation in a divorce or the date of death for an estate. Several dates can be included in one report.

Larry Prewitt, who founded the firm in 1985, and Jeff Prewitt. Both are Colorado Certified Residential Appraisers and follow USPAP on every report. Jeff performs every divorce appraisal and serves as an expert witness.

The Colorado Springs metro area, including Colorado Springs, Fountain, Falcon, Peyton, Monument, Manitou Springs and Palmer Lake. Depending on the assignment, we also appraise in parts of Douglas, Elbert and Teller counties, including Castle Rock, Larkspur, Franktown, Elizabeth, Elbert, Woodland Park and Divide.

Not directly. For a mortgage, your lender or its appraisal management company chooses the appraiser. If you need a value for your own decision, outside the loan, you can order a private party appraisal.
