Real estate appraisals by a registered appraiser

We determine the real value of your property with a formal appraisal signed by a state-registered appraiser — valid before the SAT (Mexican tax authority), banks, notaries and courts.

What is a real estate appraisal?

A real estate appraisal is the technical opinion that establishes a property's value on a given date, based on its location, physical characteristics, condition, land use and the conditions of the local market. It is not an informal estimate: it is a formal, reasoned document signed by an accredited appraiser.

Our appraisals are issued by an appraiser with a master's degree in valuation and a state appraiser registration in Quintana Roo (No. 149), with validity before the SAT (Mexico's tax authority), banks, notaries and courts. They are valid for tax purposes — acquisition tax (ISAI), income tax (ISR) on sales, and gifts — and for any procedure requiring a formal value. Each appraisal applies recognized methodology — the market-comparison, cost and income-capitalization approaches — to reach an objective, defensible value.

Having a professional appraisal before buying, selling, inheriting or financing a property protects you from overpaying, selling below value, or taking on tax and legal risk from an incorrect valuation.

When do you need an appraisal?

A formal appraisal is required — or strongly advisable — in many real estate transactions and procedures:

  • Purchase & sale: know the real market value before buying or selling, and negotiate with certainty.
  • Mortgage: a requirement of banks, INFONAVIT and FOVISSSTE to approve and size the financing.
  • Tax filings: calculation of acquisition tax (ISAI), income tax (ISR), gifts and cadastral value updates.
  • Litigation & estates: appraisal for judicial auctions, inheritance partitions, divorces and disputes.
  • Collateral: backing loans, contracts or capital contributions with the property's real value.
  • Insurance: determining the insurable value or the indemnity amount for a property.

Our process

Each appraisal is carried out with technical rigor, from documentation to the delivery of the signed opinion:

  1. 1

    Request & documentation

    We gather the property's documents: title deed, property-tax bill, ID and the purpose of the appraisal (purchase, mortgage, tax or judicial).

  2. 2

    On-site inspection

    The appraiser visits the property: measures it, verifies condition, installations, location and surroundings, and documents everything with photographs.

  3. 3

    Market research

    We analyze comparable sales and listings in the area to position the property within its real market.

  4. 4

    Analysis & calculation

    We apply the relevant valuation approaches (market, cost and/or income) to reach an objective, well-founded value.

  5. 5

    Issuance of the appraisal

    We deliver the formal appraisal signed by the registered appraiser, ready to present to the institution that requires it.

Frequently asked questions

An appraisal generally has a limited validity (commonly 6 months to a year), since value depends on market conditions. The exact validity is set by the institution or procedure it is requested for; we advise you based on your case.

Yes. Signed by a state-registered appraiser, the appraisal is valid before the SAT for tax purposes (acquisition tax, income tax on sales, gifts), as well as before banks, INFONAVIT, FOVISSSTE and notaries. For some loans, certain institutions require appraisers from their own roster; we verify this before starting.

Once the inspection is scheduled and the documents gathered, issuing the appraisal usually takes a few business days. The timeframe depends on the property type and availability for the on-site visit.

The cadastral value is set by the authority to calculate property tax and is usually lower than the real value. The market value is the price a property could sell for. The appraisal is the technical opinion that establishes that value in a reasoned, formal way for a specific purpose.

Generally: the title deed, a recent property-tax bill, the owner's official ID and, depending on the case, the contract or the institution's requirement. We provide the exact list when we start.
