Everything you need to know
The questions we actually get asked.
Including the ones whose honest answer is "it depends" — in which case we say on what.
What is a property appraisal?
It is a reasoned opinion of value, produced by a certified appraiser after a visit to the property, then set out in a signed official report that engages their professional liability.
How long does an appraisal take?
We come back to you on your request within 24 h. What follows depends on the availability of the certified appraiser covering your area and on when the visit can happen; the timeline is confirmed to you together with the fee, before you decide.
How much does an appraisal cost?
The service is paid: it is a professional mandate entrusted to a certified appraiser. The fee depends on the type of property, where it is and the scope of the mandate; you receive it before any commitment. The request itself is free.
Which Quebec regions are covered?
Coverage starts in Quebec and extends one region at a time. The list of active regions is published on the Quebec page and comes straight from our network: a region only appears there once a certified appraiser takes mandates in it.
How are appraisers selected?
Every appraiser in the network holds a professional accreditation in good standing: OEAQ in Quebec, AIC (AACI/CRA) or CNAREA elsewhere in Canada. The report carries their name, title and licence number — so you can verify the accreditation yourself.
What documents do I need to provide?
Certificate of location, renovation invoices, tax bills, and property plan.
What is the difference between an appraisal and an expert valuation report?
A certified appraisal establishes market value. An expert valuation report goes further, and is generally produced for a dispute.
Is my data secure?
Yes, in compliance with Quebec's Law 25. Your data is encrypted.
Can I cancel my request?
Yes, you can cancel at any time before the on-site visit.
Can I get my report faster?
Tell us your deadline when you make the request. We check with the certified appraiser covering your area whether it is workable and we answer you plainly — we do not promise a timeline the network cannot honour.
