How it works
From request to official report.
Tell us about your property, we match you with a certified appraiser from our network, and you receive a signed official report.
-
Step
Describe your property
A few simple questions — type, location, characteristics — in two minutes.
-
Step
A certified appraiser takes over
We assign your file to a certified appraiser from our network, near you.
-
Step
Receive an official report
A defensible value, recognized by lenders, notaries and courts.
Why a certified appraisal
An official value — not an online guess.
An online estimate gives a rough idea. When the value must hold up with a lender, a notary or a court, it takes a certified appraiser on site.
-
A certified appraiser
Licensed, from your region, held to professional standards.
-
On-site inspection
The property is visited and assessed in person.
-
A signed official report
A documented valuation the appraiser stands behind.
-
A defensible value
Recognized by lenders, notaries, courts and tax authorities.
Professional appraisal
Paid service
Transparent price, shared before any commitment.
Your request commits you to nothing — no payment at this stage.

Your request
Request your certified appraisal
It takes a few minutes. The request is free and commits you to nothing — the applicable fee is shared with you before any commitment.
Standards & compliance
Verifiable credentials, not a wall of logos.
We would rather name the bodies that hold our appraisers accountable — and let you check them yourself — than decorate the page with marks that prove nothing.

Ordre des évaluateurs agréés du Québec
The Québec professional order. Its members carry the É.A. title and answer to a code of ethics and a professional inspection regime.
-
AIC
Appraisal Institute of Canada
The pan-Canadian institute behind the AACI and CRA designations, and behind CUSPAP — the uniform standards of professional appraisal practice.

Law 25 & PIPEDA
Personal information protection
Your file is handled under Law 25 (Québec) and PIPEDA (federal): collected for your request, shared only with the appraiser assigned to it.
A certified appraisal report is signed. Your report carries the name, professional title and permit number of the appraiser who stands behind it — so you can verify the credential yourself, with the body that issued it.

Straight answers
The questions worth asking before you commit.
Including the ones where the honest answer is "it depends".
How much does an appraisal cost?
The service is paid. The fee depends on the type of property, where it is and the scope of the mandate — a city condo and a revenue property are not the same job. You receive the fee that applies to your file before any commitment, and the request itself is free.
How is this different from an online estimate?
An online estimate is computed from public data, without anyone setting foot on the property: it cannot see the real condition of the building, the renovations or the particularities of the lot. A certified appraisal rests on a visit, on comparables retained one by one and on a documented method — and it is signed.
Is it the same as the municipal assessment?
No. The municipal roll exists for taxation; it is produced en masse, at a reference date set by the municipality. A certified appraisal covers your property alone, at the effective date that concerns you, and comes with the reasoning that supports it.
Is it the same as a home inspection?
No, and it does not replace one. A home inspection looks at the condition and the defects of the building; a certified appraisal looks at value. The two are complementary — if you are buying, you will often need both.
Will my bank accept the report?
The report is produced and signed by a certified appraiser, to the standards of the profession — that is the form lenders, notaries and courts expect. We cannot promise the internal requirements of every institution: tell us which one is involved when you make your request, and we will tell you what applies.
How long does it take?
We come back to you on your request within 24 h. What follows depends on the availability of the appraiser covering your area and on when the visit can happen; the timeline is confirmed to you together with the fee, before you decide.
What if my region isn't covered yet?
The network is rolling out region by region, starting in Québec. If nobody covers your area yet, we tell you plainly rather than leaving you waiting — and we let you know as soon as a certified appraiser is active there.
What happens to my data?
Your information is used to process your request and to hand your file to the certified appraiser covering your area — nothing else. Processing is governed by Law 25 (Québec) and PIPEDA (federal).
Another question? Ask it with your request — we answer before anything is committed to.
