Quality Control · Compliance · Dispute SupportValuation of full and partial takings, severance damages, and just compensation analysis for condemnation proceedings. Reports prepared to withstand cross-examination, with expert testimony available when the matter goes to hearing.
Condemnation · Just Compensation · Expert TestimonyIndependent valuation to support residential and commercial assessment appeals. We review the municipal assessment against market evidence and prepare the documentation owners need to challenge an over-assessed value.
Assessment Review · Board of Review · OwnersThe Firm
Thomas Real Estate Appraisal was founded in 1993 by Otis B. Thomas on a simple standard: every opinion of value should be one you'd be willing to defend in court — because sometimes you have to.
Over three decades, the firm has served property owners, attorneys, lenders, and public agencies on matters ranging from routine consultation to complex eminent domain takings. The market has changed many times since 1993. The standard hasn't.
